Solar systems
You installed a very nice system and I am sure it will make camping quite enjoyable. Depending on your electric usage you may find it necessary to install additional batteries.
My family and I lived/traveled full time for 3.5 years in our 38' 5th wheel. We managed fine with a 45 watt $150.00 Harbor Freight solar system. A 300 watt system like you installed would have been soooo much better. Our small system kept the two deep cycle group 31 batteries charged (sun willing). If we needed 110 volts for AC or the microwave we had to fire up the quiet run generator. We often dry camped for more than a week without any issues. Water was most often the limiting factor when dry camping.
In our travels we met many people with solar systems and several with wind power & solar systems combined. I always asked how they liked the power systems and everyone liked them. There were some comments about watching the acid level in the batteries. Apparently some systems tend to over charge the batteries on sunny days.
It sounds like you have a nicely equipped 5th wheel I am sure you will have a good time on the road.
Good luck
