It depends a lot on how long you plan on using each one vs. camping time. I have a 2kw Prosine, I run 6 140Ah AGM's.
I went on a 5-day dry camping trip a while back and decided to see how long I could go without any kind of care as far as conserving batteries. Ran the coffee maker every day, tv, laptop, satellite, icemaker, etc, and on day 4 the inverter was squealing about low voltage.
My inverter also has a 3-stage 100amp charger, so ran the Honda for a couple hours and was good to go for the remaining day and a half.
