Thanks those are good considerations. I was just sitting here thinking that I hope I never have to worry about finding something to do when I run out of power while camping. If the recharge is slow, so be it. I am more concerned about getting a good life out of the battery.

Thanks from me also... this has been a big help.. I originally just ran two separate setups... 12 volt and 110... but I need to make the 12 volt run the 110... so I have been taking notes!

I just ordered a 100w Renogy Solar Panel, a 40 AMP Renogy MPPT controller and miscellaneous stuff to get it set up. Wish me luck.
