78 hours for five gallons of propane is far wide of my use. It is astronomically high. When I was full time and mostly boon docking 20 gallons of propane would last three to four months.
I did wish I had more solar at that time.
Now that I'm back to part time, I can't justify the cost of an upgrade. I may go back to a larger battery bank or double the usable capacity of the existing bank.
It is really too bad that the only LI battery that tolerates extreme cold is so very expensive. But fortunately there is another chemistry that meets my desires (not my needs) so it is very much an optional upgrade.
