Recommendations regarding Solar Power
We are new to RVing and considering roof-mount Solar system both to keep the batteries topped off but also to run the A/C or uWave. I'm thinking about a 200 Watt system. I am concerned about where...

Also, if you add the Blue Sky Energy IPN-ProRemote and shunt, besides full control of the SB2512iX-HV, you also have a battery monitor. Nice solution.
Yes, uWave means microwave. In engineering jargon the omicron (u) meens micro. I was concerned 200W would be insufficient for the rooftop A/C. Thanx for confirming it. Will eventually opt for portable generator, then. Still want solar to keep batteries topped off. Might go for two smaller (100W?), one for starting battery, one for house.
