We have 4 12V house batteries and 400 watts of solar. We boondock without having to use the generator for much other than AC (in the summer) or for microwaving stuff (or the hair dryer for DW!) We usually get a good 12-14 hours overnight including residential fridge, TV's, sat dish, iPads and phone charging before we even consider running the genny.
One of the things to consider is your charger - if you go from 2 batteries to 4, it will increase your charging times and you may also want to check the high end to see if the charger will ever get the batteries beyond 90 percent capacity. That was the one reason we added solar - it works to top off the batteries with a separate controller.
