145 Watt DM Solar panel
Old Sunsei CC-10000 10 Amp Solar Charge Controller
2 Group 24 batteries, 170 AH total
1200W inverter (installed but never used yet)
150W inverter (sometimes used)
all LED lighting
I have done a 5-day camping trip with this setup and kept up with demand. Mostly running several fans to keep cool during unusually warm labor day weekend. Also charge phones, laptops and kindles with a bunch of low cost USB car chargers from monoprice.com that plug into 12V cigar lighters in trailer.
When off-grid we cook with propane. French press for coffee.
I am looking to upgrade my charge controller (probably the Landstar LS1024).
My emergency generator is my truck and heavy booster cables. Used once so far (before my solar panel was installed).
