We had some acres up on the mountain where we kept a 34' 5th wheel as our "cabin in the mountains". One Kyocera 120 watt solar panel provided us with fully charged RV batteries whenever we needed them, only time we ran a generator is when the cook wanted to use the microwave or to run the vacuum cleaner. Worked for us for 28 years. Nice thing about solar panels is there are no moving parts to wear out or need lubrication and maintenance.

Our neighbor up the hill from us has a full solar home, completely off the grid, 8 solar panels, big bank of batteries, propane fired generator for emergencies. They live in comfort.
