This may be a deal killer because we are almost always away from the trailer during daylight hours, hiking or snow-shoeing or skiing. So we would not be in a position to monitor the battery and the solar charger in real time, to make sure that we are not damaging the system and that there is enough juice to run the fridge, etc.
Do you take a generator when boondocks ?
Install the batteries inside. When you get back from your outside adventure, start the generator and a couple of electric heaters. If you have a good battery management system it will not allow the batteries to accept a charge until they are at a safe temperature.
Watch the Will Prowse YouTube channel. He reviews solar panels, inverters, chargers and batteries. He always comments if the battery management system has cold weather protection.
