    So I haven't got time to do the battery calculations and go throught the whole link you got there, I'll do that this weekend while I'm not working!

    But to feed you guys with something I'll give you the power consumption for my appliances.

    Fridge: 180w - used 24/7.
    Tv: 70w - used max 2h, 3/4 days a week, sometimes less.
    Laptop: 80w charging, 50w full battery - same use as tv.
    The lights only take a couple watts each but only one is lighten at a time. - used less than 30min/day.
    And I have no idea how much the radio takes (it's a single slot pioneer car radio) - used max an hour/day.

    I'll get back to you guys as soon as I can get back to that battery link!

    Thanks again guys!
    If I were you, I will get 1000 to 1200 watts panels, 4 Trojan L16RE-B 6 volt 370 amps hours batteries wired for 24 volt bank, 1 midnite Classic 150 charge controller and 1000 watts 24 volts pure sine wave inverter. Also a small 1000 to 1500 watts portable Generator is needed for backup.

      Now that hardware should be made into a "kit" and rated as ~ 2.2kWh per day. It wouldn't be cheap but is nicely balanced.
