What do you guys think of a system like this for a guy like me?
We presently have 4 golf cart batteries, a Honda EU2000 and a Xantrex Freedom 2000 watt inverter charger. We often camp where power is not available .... It hasn't been a big deal to get buy with what we have as we are not big power consumers. If we run the generator for 4 hours in the middle of the week we can usually last a week without solar. We have almost never had a need for AC but on the rare occasion that AC is needed the EU2000 gets us by so long as we shut off the fridge and battery charging.
You want to see just about the ultimate solar system in an RV? Check out my cousin's blog on their '64 GM bus rebuild. www.beginningfromthismorning.com. Basically, they've got 8 commercial grade solar panels on the roof with a Nissan Leaf battery to power the whole thing.
