I have four 6v batteries and 400 w solar. You are not going to have enough to run that microwave for long. You said 3 Tv s. Are they the tube type? They use more power than the new flat screens. Winter camping also does not provide a lot of sun as it sits low making solar less efficient.
Wedo alright running 1 tv at night with the heater and the solar will catch up the next day if we have enough sun. Run the coffee maker or the direct tv DVD on 24/7 and we end up using the generator within 48 hours. We try to conserve power as much as possible. We also have led lights in our rv.
