FYI
I have an E450 with the batteries housed under the steps
For me, two batteries is adequate
The two batteries are flooded lead acid deep cycle Interstate brand + two 100 watt solid panels mounted on the roof to keep them charged while boon docking.
Although I do live in an arid & sunny climate, I have no problems running my 1200 watt inverter all day long which powers TVs, Dome dish, & receiver as well.
I really enjoy the flexibility that solar offers...keeping batteries charged without having to continuously run the generator or start the chassis engine.

100 watt panels have become very affordable ($100 each), and are also now much more efficient than previously.
