We have only done 1 long trip so far last summer (4 months) and only about 1 week off grid, some days in 95 degree temps, other days in mild temps. While adequate for mild temps, in hot weather during the day the A/C and fridge really ate the batteries which limited our ability to run A/C at night, or use the RV at night in the usual way. Also, no way we could leave our dog in RV and go out leaving A/C on, as only a few hours A/C possible. We were always worried about our batteries, not fun.,

Bottom line is we want peace of mind and ability to use RV more akin to being on hook-up, so we have an appointment in September at Future Solutions to add another 400-800 watts of panels (depending on room), 3 more 100ah batteries to bring us to 900ah total, and a DC-DC charger. Already spent $19,500 when we bought the RV, might as well spend a little more to insure a comfortable off-grid experience, which will allow us to go off-grid a LOT more (thus saving $$) and enjoying nature.

Sounds to me like you need to add a gen..
