Thanks for all the warm welcomes and suggestions everyone. I will see if my dealer allows for an overnight test run, mind you I am only 15 minutes away so if issues arise I don't have a long haul back for service. Forgive me if I conveyed the wrong message SoundGuy, I was not looking up solar to have an off grid/dry camp setup. More so just to keep the batteries maintained and offset light use. I currently have to run a 75 foot extension to my trailer on my property when not in use to keep the batteries up, I was figuring if I had a panel on the TT I could scrap the cord. We do mostly camp in the Prov. Parks, often we dont have hydro sites though and that doesnt bother us for the most part. As I said, I do have a generator and on my old rig had two batteries and we never had an issue. We do dry camp a few times a year for the weekend when we go to a few different events. I consider this trailer glamping in the sense it has so many amenities we are not used to. Ideally we can book hydro sites to utilize the AC, it will be a welcome creature comfort this coming summer especially with a pregnant wife. Before we had trailers we would go on 4 and 5 day atv trips in tents on the good old earth in tents and sleeping bags. Times change and with the family trailers sure are nice.
