Add another battery?
New Jayco 18' TT - 2 families were to camp from Friday - Sunday... I took the trailer up on Wed to hold the area before the rest came up on Friday.. Got there about 2:00 in afternoon and it was pretty...

We have the above and it all worked nice but nothing gave us the freedom from worrying about the battery like the simple 230w solar system I cobbled together. Unless it's cloudy for days we can't use the power it puts out. We light the rig up from end to end, set the stat at 74 all day and night and can watch TV/DVD, listen to radio and run the fans all we want. The battery is always fully charged at night and losses little overnight. We never run the generator for charging, but we do take it as a back up. It would cost around $400 to make a system like it.
I'd like a portable system, so am looking at a "Zamp" 200 Wt portable ... suitcase type 2 panels, 16' wire & controller = approx. $900.00 .. How would you do the same for the approx. $400 you mention?
Thanks !!
