Battery capacity doesn’t seem too far off to me relative to solar panel capacity.

Each has 100 Ah X 12 Volts, or 1,200 Watt-hours. Three batteries are 3,600 Watt-hours at 100% discharge. Based on typical solar production on a sunny day, adjusted for inefficiencies, etc., the panels should come close to recharge batteries daily.

The hybrid inverter is a cool feature, but I’m not sure how much it adds in a case like this one where owner wants to run solely off solar most of the time. For those who power an air conditioner off a small generator that can’t start the A/C by itself, the hybrid inverter may add extra value. In this case, however, not sure it adds a lot.
