Roys concept of solar is used by others on the forum. Mine however you won't find on any blog. In fact most would tell you that it can't be done at all.
My solar is a generator, not a battery charger. It is a big enough generator that we run a small air conditioner, cook, heat water and much more without the batteries knowing that the gear is even running. Minimal cycling means that my batteries will last much longer than if the were deeply discharged and recharged daily. It's a different way of looking at it and you are not going to see it in any blog.
Jacks site is good and you can talk to him on RV Dreams any time. I started reading three years ago and haven't stopped yet.
