We leave for a 5 week trip on the first of Sept. During that 5 weeks, we expect to be hooked up to a power pole maybe 2 or 3 nights. We camp many nights in wooded areas where solar would be useless. I will be charging my one 12 volt battery while driving and can last 10 days running all of the 12 volt stuff without any outside source. If we stay more than 10 days, I will fire up my 2000 inverter generator to charge my batteries using my 40 watt charger. I fill my fresh water tank and we can go weeks without worry. We basically use our TT as a hard sided tent with a very comfortable bed. My gas fridge uses almost no electricity. This is our style of camping, just more comfortable than a tent.
There ya go ... X2!
That's the way to realize the most value from your hard-earned self-contained RV purchase dollars.
