Solar Powered RV
Is there a way to run the Motorhome with solar panels (especially the A/C and microwave)? If so, how much do I need?

Hi,
Smallest air I've seen is about 4500 btu's. That would draw 30 amps @ 12 volts. 30 x 8 hours = 240 amp-hours.
Ok, so we are down to 2,500W solar array - tiny, 7ft by 25ft :)
The effect of such an A/C will be tiny as well.
And a small 500 AH bank that will be half-empty by the morning and if there is no sun - let's assume the unlikely scenario, clouds next morning :) - there comes a generator.
