We have managed to achieve the holy grail of solar camping, that is totally off grid electrical power, to power our 28 foot travel trailer..... after many tries and re-do's.
We put 6 Interstate GC2-XHD 6V Deep Cycle batteries over the axles (to reduce frame stress). To charge the batteries we use 300 watts of solar panels on the roof (purchased from Bills Solar in Quartzsire, az). This has 6 gauge wire with a 12 foot run, through the side roof, to a Sunco charge controller, which then goes to the battery bank. We have a short run of automotive battery connector wire to a Harbor freight 5000w/10,000w invertor. (currently you can get one there on sale for $350)
The battery bank provides 12v power to the 12v systems directly, like the power for the full sized (home kitchen size) dual propane/electric fridge, as well as the mini ducted floorfurnace (propane, with 12/115v power selector for blower). We got rid of the original coleman A/C unit on roof (trailer is a 1968 Boles Aero) which weighed a Ton, and made a new ducting to fit a small wal mart special window ac unit. We researched and bought the smallest unit made easy to find, 5500btu, with the lowest load.
In the sunny parts of the day, we can get up to 12 amps of charging, and can run the 115v AC from about 10am straight until about an hour before sundown, before we shut it off to have power left for all the other uses during the night. It keeps the front bedroom and kitchen area very comfortable, even in 100 degree weather.
We are firm believers in being able to enjoy the beautiful quiet and solitude of the desert and High Sierras, and hate hearing others around with generators..... Quartzsite is the worst with all those folks with their Road-Castles RV's and huge 5th wheels, every single one running generators... sounds like you are at the ocean, or near Niagarafalls all night long....yeech.... not to mention having to use gas. We are able, if we don't have to refill the propane tanks due to furnace, or cooking, (just for the fridge) to last over 2 months uninterrupted power, before we need to get more propane for the fridge. Normally, during the winter months in the High Sierras, we last about 3 weeks on our two propane tanks. In the summer.... we don't worry about having to be near any store for gas or propane.
We got it in sad shape, totally tore out the guts, and rebuilt it inside out.
