Everyone's power requirements are different. I would consider a volt meter to be the one essential tool to have. A couple of years ago I bought a DC and a AC meter for around 6 bucks including shipping on ebay. I have them mounted just inside the door. I did install on/off switches but if you don't mind a night light from the LCD display it's not necessary.
The last time we were out for 48 hrs and voltage only dropped to 12.3 with 2 batteries. No TV usage and minimal incandescent lights, ran a Fantastic Fan both nights. There are 12v info threads on here and charts for state of charge. I just remember to think of 12.0v as being 1/2 charge and time for a boost.
