That 1,000 watts sounds very low to me. You know panels don't run at 100% efficiency. Then again are you talking about in Canada where AC needs would be very low I would think. In US RV AC's start around 13,5000 BTU's. I calculated that cost from my bill and could have easily missed a decimal. That $1800 figure is not what is important, it is what is going on during the peak usage that determines the size necessary. My bill can run $250/month in the summer, but we are frequently camping months at a time.
