I got into the same catch 22 here as well. Have not got to go camping in a few years now due to health issues with both Me and the Wife. I had just purchased my two groups of 6VDC batteries and have them setup on my work bench... I have been making sure they are staying charged up. They are not being used however under any load...
I am thinking now I should go ahead with my solar panel plans which was installing three 120Watt panels on my trailer roof with one on each side of my roof window... Then another solar across the rear of the roof between the roof mounted air conditioner and the rear of roof...
I will use the aluminum Unistrut to mount the panels...
At least I could be using my POPUP TRAILER Panels to feed my radio room here at the house while not being camping off grid somewhere...
My big battery bank sure is not doing much good just sitting on my work table haha...
I have a second 10WATT small solar panel on the other end of the battery box. One for trickle charging each 12VDC battery banks...
This was to be mounted on my trailer tongue area replacing my three 12VDC batteries currently being used...
