Recharging via generator and/or solar panels
Since I have both options, from a power management perspective, since the 120W folding panel has diodes... must I only run one, or the other, and have a complete disconnect of the input from the solar...

Fridge on propane plus LP alarm and stereo clock takes 17AH/day in our rig, when we are away, fridge left on. That was in the summer daytime 80F. If using the rig, don't know fridge draw. The door would be opened and closed many times, which must add to it.
The actual draw is a small amount when the burner is not lit, part of a 0.3a standing draw in the rig. The burner when on takes another 0.5a
This pretty much confirms that unless I am staying at a park with hookups, it's no wonder the generator runs so much, hours wise per day, staying on top of keeping that single 24 DC battery charged up.
So, pretty sure at this point that 2 GC's and another solar panel are in my future.
