First of all forgive me, I know this topic has been discussed and there are a million different tutorials but I guess I need it simplified for me as to if my idea will work. My wife and I are wanti...

How much for the panel?
Use #10 wire for all the dc distribution. Fuse at 30 amps.
If you want that hair drier you need to have a 2000 watt inverter generator.
For tiny 120 volt loads a 300 watt inverter would be prudent.
The battery charger needs to be high amperage unit if you plan to recharge from a generator. That will minimize generator run time.

I've found a 100wat Everbrite solar panel that seems reasonable. I'll use the 2-GC-2 six volt batteries as suggested and the morningstar controller. Some 12v wall mounted plugs and a few hardwired 12v lights.This should be enough to run a few 12v lights, fan, small 12v appliances etc right? Distribution and fuses. done.
As far as 110v power I can add a small tongue mounted generator and a good battery charger for the times when I do need limited 110 and if I have to charge the battery. Basic foundation I hope.
