I'm new here and building a new system for a new truck camper. On my current setup I've been using 400 watts of PV with a GoalZero Yeti 1000 for a few years now, which has been great, but will be building a new system for the new truck camper. Here's where I am right now on components, listed below. Am I on the right track or does something stand out as the wrong choice? There are so many components and so many choices for each one. My current system is running a Dometic CFX65DZ, MaxxAir fan, Starlink (turned off at night) and charging phone/iPad/laptop. With the new camper I'll add induction cooktop, ZeroBreeze A/C and a Splash-proof 250 Watt Convector Heater (the camper is Total Composites which is so well insulated that these low power heating and cooling choices are expected to be sufficient).
Here is what I've come up with so far:
2 Renogy 450W panels - 900W total (I may add 100W more for total of 1000W)
2 x 280aH 3.2V LiFePO4 Prismatic Cells - 560aH total - from SolarSupplyHouse (via Will Browse)
Overkill Solar 4s BMS 120a
3000W 12V Renogy Inverter/Charger
Renogy Rover 100Amp MPPT charge controller w/Renogy ONE and Bluetooth dongle
Victron 12/12-30 DC/DC charger
What am I missing (besides all the terminal components)? It seem like systems get very busy very quickly. I'm trying to keep it to what's necessary without getting too fancy, if that's possible.
Thanks in advance for you tolerance and suggestions.
