One really important fact I failed to remember and mention is that I have 2 Solec 90 watt solar panels on my roof that each produce 5 amps of charge per hour, per panel, in full sunlight (fortunately, I'm in Miami). The Monaco manual says that theirMonaco Owner's Manual wrote:With this added info, do you think I'm in good shape to leave it for 2 weeks without our food being destroyed, so long as the LPG is full and the solar panels are clean?
extensive testing has shown that one 90 watt panel delivers enough power to offset normal day to day drain on batteries, caused by various parasitic electrical loads...This means that the first 90 watt solar panel is only intended to cover these parasitic loads. Adding a second can replace what is drawn out of the batteries from the operation of lights, water pumps, inverters, etc., while dry camping.
Yep !
