Thank you for that response. I will look into those components and hopefully figure that part out.

Could you provide the components necessary for hooking up your system to your vehicle's alternator/battery? I would like to add this to my system, but totally clueless how this would work.

Also, another question for you, MrNatural22: at your current usage for the system and components you described, how many of those mysterious "watt hours" do you use in a single day?

Thank you for that response. That is very helpful. A couple of questions. First, you said you have a specific inverter "if needed." I thought you had to have the inverter on all the time, with various loads plugged into it, in order to be drawing from the system? Again, I guess I'm confused. Is...

Thank you for this response. This is the kind of thing I was looking for (basically a similar sample of loads and then get a sample solar setup from there). What is a "FLA house battery"? Is it similar in power/specs to this one...

Thank you for the suggestion. Looks like from what you and everyone say, I will be forgetting the idea of using my small dorm fridge and opting to get a 12v fridge.

Ok, suppose I got a 12v fridge instead of the one I have, and also ditched the oven. So now my question is: how many solar panels do I need to purchase? How many batteries do I need to purchase? What size charge controller do I need to purchase? And what size inverter do I need to purchase?

Ok, so I need to get a 12v fridge. Got it. BTW, as stated, I honestly do not understand any of the audit math. I am truly confused. I just get it. In your link, the person arrives at requiring "1300 wh/day." I don't know what that means. In a vaccum, I don't understand "1300 wh/day." It's like...

I guess I'm just really stupid, because I legit have no idea what you just said. All I saw was a bunch of Chinese and then, boom, you can run a small fridge for 3 on your battery. Do you mean a battery like this one? ====>...

FYI. The small fridge I have is a "dorm room" style, roughly a 3ft x 3ft size. I plan on using this continuously during trips.

Hello everyone. I am new to solar and have taken on a project that I have several questions about and cannot seem to figure out (even with internet help). So I've decided to ask the question by telling you all what I want to eventually have and getting a recommendation for a solar setup. So...
