It is just me, Charlie

Yep. Nothing special here. I just got a 2017 3730rd. Figure this might be a good source for information about it.

Going to do a little inverter and solar on it to help with boondocking.

Check out AIMS inverters. Good equipment, lower cost, much simpler to operate than some others. No matter what you buy, make sure you get a pure sine wave unit.

Aims is top of the line. But do your homework. Sigineer inverters are equally as good. Since both are made in China by the same company but labeled differently. I have a Sigineer and my buddy has an Aims, we've compared and they are identical. The difference is the price.

https://www.aimscorp.net/product/300...erter-charger/
Aims $1207 Sigineer $829

Foldbak is exactly correct. They are the same inverter. Good observation.

Keystone website should be you're first visit. Once you've reviewed the videos you can ask specific questions. Not really hard. Solar panels, solar charger, disconnect switch!
