Self Sufficient on Solar? Something Not Right !

I'm happy w/ my small 200 watt solar, but it dawned on me the other day that if the sun hangs in here as long as I do (here in QZS) I will have saved a whole $60 of gasoline I usually burn in my Honda...

OP here,
it wadnt like I was ignorant to all this inverter, battery AHs stuff,,....I guess the question really was,....how many of those big strapper solar rigs I see out in the desert here are running propane free. There just may be some.
A heat pump is probably the place to start,.....never gave that a thought.
It wouldn't be for me, but propane could be a hassle for a 45 ft MH spending 5 months out here in the desert.
