[QUOTE="Goldchaser1, post: 513236, member: 9528"] So your batteries are ok? When you said they didnt respond well to solar i thought ya batteries were toast,so a lack of sun or panels is what your inferring? I think 3 fridges dihusky with 240 of agm or crystal (not knowing much on the crystals) will be a struggle with even 300? watts of panels,if the weathers not perfect for a cuppla days i think ya a bit on the light side battery wise for 3 fridges,lights and other odds an ends,you can do the maths till the cows come home but the weather is the biggest factor,and storing that power,trial and error,which as above youve allready started,get a bms on the system,no guesswork then,youll know all day everyday exactly where you stand. When i put ours togethor the goal hopefully was to not have to rely on the genny,it worked out better then expected actually,i thought wed have it going parked for a week odd in one spot,we did 3 weeks and didnt fire it up,the car doesnt charge our van either,so you could say 6 weeks (on the road) fridge an freezer packed and using lights recharging etc etc.No skimping on power usage. Youll find out soon enough,most days with enough panels youll be ok,its those 12-14+ hours running fridges overnight(some maths help here as ya guaranteed no sun. lol) with solar that does the damage,more panels or batteries will sort it,good luck and keep us informed..... Also talk to this mob if ya interested,I wouldnt buy panels off them,$$$ ouch but they know there shite..... [url]https://www.solar4rvs.com.au/[/url] [/QUOTE]
