Hey Chad, welcome to the forum. You're not far from me (Forestville). It would be great to have a solar and invertor expert around. Casini Ranch, Doran, Dillon Beach and Ocean Cove are our local get aways
I was just out at Casini a couple of weeks ago testing out my new solar installation. I put 1410 watts on the roof going to a Magnum PT-100 charge controller. It is charging 1040 AH of AGM batteries. We were there for the weekend and I never plugged in. We ran LOTS of power through the trailer (intentionally) and my batteries were back to full charge every afternoon. We ran TV's, watched movies, ran the microwave, hair drier, dishwasher, etc all off the Magnum 3012 Hybrid inverter. It was a cool weekend so the heater ran at night as well. I was very happy with the performance of the system. I have a full write up on it on the Escapees forum.
I enjoy doing solar/inverter/RV electrical work and have done several installs for friends as well.
