#1 is poorly written. If they are saying you have a 100amp-hr battery bank, you should only use 50amp-hr max (less if you don't fully charge each day).
300w solar will produce around 125amp-hr on a typical day. Way more than needed. Even on a stray cloudy day, it should be keeping up.
It will certainly work but more efficient would be 150w solar which would keep up most days and if you get a couple cloudy days, you can do bulk charging for an hour or two in the morning.
Reality is you should do an energy audit and size the system accordingly.
