Yeah I know that solar is not connected to anything but the battery. Its like have an independant battery charger that only come on for 3 to 5 hours a day when the sun is out (well it might give a small trickle for a few more hours when sun is low in the sky).

I also think my solar setup will help with any "Mooch docking" we will do in our travels. We plan on visiting family accross the USA later this year (and next year(S)) and spend a night or two in their driveways. With the exception of the needing the AC unit when it hot ....I figured I wont need to plug in at all (well unless it cloudy or super cold and I need an electic heater to help out).
Have you estimated how many WATTS of solar you are planning on?
