    My enclosed trailer / race bike hauler. Each battery weighs 85lbs x 4 so 340lbs total. I did some testing with my usual daytime loads to get a baseline of what I needed in terms of generation with some left to charge and then I added more batteries. No use having solar for daytime and be dead come night or worse a cloudy day when your charging is limited and then you have nothing left in reserve. When I compare my deep cycle batteries @600ah total to my old Jeep optima red top type 31 @47ah it is like having 12 of them. So maybe I am just badass?
