The FIRST thing you need to figure out is how much battery storage you need ! To do that, you need to know what your loads are. If you want to run a 5,000 BTU A/C from sundown to sunup, you are going to need a LOT OF BATTERIES !
The panels hook up to the batteries vis a solar charge controller.
The batteries can be hooked to an inverter to provide 120V AC power for things like a residential refrigerator. Not the prettiest, but certainly the simplest and cheapest way to connect your inverter to your RV is a simple extension cord from the inverter to your normal shore power inlet.
