While you are probably saving money, on the components as a group, you are going to compromise the quality of most of the parts. While you will spend more money to break the parts out and purchase seperately, at least you will get the correct sized cables and length you will need for your application doing it yourself than this kit.
Also, will Solar be workable for your style of camping? Where investing in better batteries, charger and cables meet your needs for the majority of your camping style? For Solar, you will need to camp in the sun and in warm country that will make your camper hotter. Winter use these will be fairly useless as you will need twice the amount of the watts in this kit, to meet the same result in the warmer season they provide, even if you tilt them. Then you have clouds, Pacific Inversion layer, shadows. While Solar is great, and a life changer for me, one needs to decide is this something that will benefit their TC use, another tool in the toolbelt to bring into use when needed or something you might think you need and find out later you might have done better by doing something different or with different parts.
