RE: Solar Ken, you have a lot of answers so far. Let me add a cou0ple more comments. First, the HF setup is old technology, not very efficient. And iffy on durability in the weather for long times. Your customer can get, for a littl more money, a full kit like this: http://www.windynation.com/products/solar/solar-panel-kits/100-watt-solar-panel-complete-kit-rvs-boats-and-grid > as pointed out by another list member not to long ago. Second, suggest to your customer that he acquire 12v adapters for anything he will need to run or charge while camped or traveling. Mount a block of 12v outlets on the cabinet behind the drivers seat, very convenient. Go to eBay for those, really cheap. I've had an inverter in my rig for about 10 years now. I rarely use it and I camp/travel 60+ days a year. Virtually all my toys are run off 12v adapters. Good luck.
