4500w of solar , 25kwhr of tesla battery

a/c uses about 1600-1800 watts

the solar should carry at least one a/c

can use the genny in the evening IF he wants to use a/c without loading the battery

by staying out of really hot weather he doesn't have to be concerned about that

With that big of battery bank he doesn't have to worry much about what mother nature throws at him! With all those panels he'll harvest some energy even on cloudy days.

I was thinking more about a string of back-to-back hot days when even that solar capacity can't keep those batteries topped up high enough to run the A/C long enough to stay comfortable well enough.

Of course with a full main fuel tank I guess that idling the main engine could always make up the difference for awhile. (At least that's what the Earthroamer designers are counting on with their generator-less air conditioning configurations.)

What we all need is solar panels with way higher conversion efficiencies. ;)

Watch "The Postman" to get an idea on how long lone folks by themselves out in the middle of nowhere - regardless of RV solar watts or water tank sizes - will be left alone to live in any Garden of Eden bubble they might temporarily erect around themselves.

Hordes of hoodlums runnning all over the place in 4X4's and on motorcycles - all with automatic weapons - will easily find and wipe out any RV'ers trying to live safely in their DIY Bug-Out rigs. :(

I suspect that all RVers and bug out folk living in the wilderness are all well armed also..

Watching Holywood fantasy isnt very healthy for persons mind..there wont be any apocalyptic scenarios humanity is way too advanced for that

Humanity always reserves the right to surprise us. :S

Video explained all the defense hardware was in the trailer. :B

Go to any urban high school and look at what's standing around in the playground. The zombies are waiting in the wings.

Of course there goes my dream of living next door to a natural gas field armed with a 500Kw Worthington natural gas engine, a clipboard, a calculator and reading glasses to keep track of the sell back power meter.
