Our site is seasonal so the trailer never moves. Took 3 hours to get it in where it is. The plan is to put the four across the top of our covered porch, angled slightly so the overall angle facing south would be 20 degrees or so. The panels I have, are old Canadian Solar 260W units. Farms here are swapping them out for more power dense models, so I only paid $90CAD each for them. Once I get the three I have up and running and verify the output I will buy one more as that's what would fit easily on that roof. There is a chance I could run two horizontal and 4 vertical for a total of about 1.5kw. But my hope was each part would just supplement. I would always be charging the battery from the shore at 8A, and during the day the panels would also share the trailer load. I just need to be able to get through two night with AC running. So around 15A when on at night, but the charge from the park would be slightly off setting that.
The system you put above is pretty much where I was going to start, although I had dabbled in the idea of making my own powerwall from cells, either way I would start with 5.1kw to see if it would work. But would I need the standalone charger if I have the hybrid inverter that has the built in one? Using that I would take advantage of its ability to share loads and prioritize them. Money being no object I like the Victron Multiplus II as it has true power sharing, so I could pull from all three sources depending on my load.
We have a 13.5 A/C, and we keep the fan on low, looking at it the draw is about 13A (we have the soft start so there is no spike). Our HW tank is propane only. Inside loads are just TV idle/on with a Roku stick, plus my daughters 100 plug in adapters. All those loads even when one are only 1-2A total. Even fixing the voltage we have been in the habit of turning on the A/C to use the microwave, and would continue to do that so we could get away with the smaller inverter and battery bank.
