Answers should be custom tailored for the particular type of RV'ing (especially boondocking) a person wishes to do. They establish the rules. The objectives.
"I want to do this and I want to do that". They have a choice of running a generator all day, or not. That and solar panels allows a choice, and none are better than the other. The issue is and was and will remain "Is it adequate?"
