Reed, you are sooooooo right about boosting the size of the Battery bank and the problems it would have been for me, if I had responded to that urge. As it is now, my total battery bank/s is; 1,460 (1,160/300) AmpH complementing, 1,860w of solar (1,560w/300w). As you know, I have two banks. When swapping out my batteries earlier this year I seriously thought about boosting it with 2 more 6v batteries (232 AmpH). But then I would be back to the same issue I had before I boosted (tuned) my solar panel wattage/quantity. But, I knew the issues I would be creating by having more battery bank than my solar could service. As you have seen me write about often, in this forum and my articles, balance is key. When a weekender can just return home and plug in and it is all taken care of. But for extended adventurers/Fulltimers and long vactioners, they need to work within the plan.
