How is this for a power system? Solar vs battery balance?

I prefer starting my builtin generator for short duration use instead of running on an inverter. I do like inverters for low draw appliances like tv, chargers, etc. As much as some of the batteries cost, it’s almost like buying a generator but without the ability to charge. If I regularly used that much power, I could see it. As is, I can get buy several days without generator, and if I run my generator, I run it just long enough to charge the batteries which usually only takes 30 minutes to an hour.
