My solar, 420 Watts, and 484 AH of battery is almost enough for the winter in Mexico (without AC) and the same up here in the summer if we're not under the trees.
Yep. Minimum 500W for winter in Mexico or summer in BC-WA. Make it 700-1000W to be able to camp in partial shade too.
Winter in WA, on solar, jeez... I can survive on zero watts when it's warm and dry in daytime. When it's 40F in the night AND in the day and rains non-stop for a week - I wouldn't even try living without 110V grid, or a wood burning stove, or a generator.
