New trailer: WDH, Generator
I'll be picking up a new Rockwood Geo Pro 16BH in May. Dealer said I should try without a WDH. Also said solar panels can keep batteries topped up. Trailer is 3000 pounds dry. Towing with 2014 ...

Congrats on the new rig! If all you plan on using the generator for is charging the battery, I would go for the solar panels to be honest.
The generator will use a trickle charger to charge the batteries and will take a fairly long time. I believe it was in the realm of 3-4 hours if they were about half. 2 ea 6V batteries will do you for a weekend with moderate use in my experience.
I only use a 100 w solar panel and my generators run when we use appliances and what not, so that would be the only reason to use a genny. Just my thoughts.
Good luck!
