Amp hours, typical daily--50-100AH
5 Batteries
Batteries configured in two banks-3 AGM telecom batteries totalling 100 AH--two GC2 6v's totalling 210 AH
6V and 12V
Batteries are run for two days without charge
Haven't used a generator, yet.
Notes: I have 230W of solar and the 12V system is built to use a 120V dorm fridge, 120V entertainment items, a water pump, and two 3 amp fans, if needed. I have no other 12V devices used on a daily basis. Since my water pump is an air compressor (vintage pressure system), the water "pump" doesn't run on demand (probably some power savings there).
