How big of a solar system is enough?
While planning out the addition of solar to my 2009 Lance 1880, I gravitated to the 160 watt systems right off the bat. It's what the new trailers come with and seems to be a common wattage available....

I just talked to our friends who are full time in a 26ft TT, he said they can run there 2 batteries almost down and the 160w system will have them topped off in 2 hours in the southern CA sun, 6 hours on a cloudy day.
We had 50w on our Lance TC and it kept the 1 battery full unless it was dark and rainy for 3-4 days in a row, we only used it for water pump, and WH,fridge control power, we used portable lights and no tv, we have camped for 9 days off grid and only ran out of water.
