I actually had been kicking around the idea of the solar thing and I am not ruling it out yet and I will probably put provisions in for a possible later date solar connection, I have calculated the watts that will be used and the total CA of the 2 deep cycle batteries and if my calculation is right I should easily be able to get 56 hrs of continuous usage before having to start the generator for a charge which I don't think that I would have all appliances on for that duration so I shouldn't have a problem but things don't always work out the way I calculate!! LOL
