Well when we started researching for our conversion, I wanted to keep it green. Actually we ended up with two 100 watt solar panels. Two 8d batteries for the coach and we have three 8d's for the house.

Recently added an echo charger to keep the coach batteries topped up. This system was definitely more pricey than genset, but we sure like it. Solar will and is getting cheaper as with the LED stuff, just not quick enough.

But we still have a gen on hand for emergencies or for high use times. Depending on your inverter, you could run some high ticket items with qen set backing up the batteries etc. Hope this helps...
