I take delivery on a new (to me) 05 30' Classic next week. I'd like to add solar and would like to find the best route to go. I'm not a serious boondocker but would like to be able to enjoy an evening of television without running the generator (even though the Honda 2000 is very quiet).

I've been reading alot on the web about systems, panels/collectors, glass mat batteries, inverters and yadda yadda!!! And I've overwhelmed myself a little.

The Airstream dealer in Manteca California quoted me approximately $1200. for a system with two panels and 2 glass mat batteries and some sort of a controller.

What have you guys done for solar? Do it yourself? Had someone istall it?
And how do you figure how much system you need?

Thanks

Mike
