That's how I saw it. Microwave with gen, 200w solar should cover it. The size of the battery bank and amount of solar power just went ballistic. It's crazy!

90ah sounds a lot better but maybe short of my wag of what I thought I would need.
Sorry to interrupt. I don't recall any numbers for energy audit here. Your needs from the 1st or 2nd page:
"Usually have a radio running, lights and fans, microwave, DVD player and monitor, computer, refrigerator-although it will run on propane as well. I like to dry camp so pumping water also.".
Unless I missed something.
The consensus (excluding me, since I don't consider microwave necessary at all) has been that microwave will need a generator, and since you already have a genny, there isn't much to debate. Together with a microwave the items listed above should draw 120-150 AH daily. 90 AH or less without a microwave.
