I'll continue to drive this point forward. Solar has a payback period. It can be quite lengthy if you spend a lot of time hooked to other powers sources or camp in a lot of shade, where solar is compromised.

If you spend 90% of you time in the desert southwest, your payback period will be less.

Try to research it and compare that to how you use your RV, or intend to use it once you get solar and the picture will get clearer with most every read. Solar is either a fad or a vey good way to remain off grid.

I know a woman with a scamp fifth wheel. She has 750W solar, Victron equipment and 3 lithium batteries. She dry camps 95% of the time. In her case, it already paid for itself.
