===== Shoot for 280 amp-hours ===== Capacity is, of course, dependent on your loads and your sources. Most GMC roofs can easily accommodate 450-500 watts of solar without compromise. We'll assume that air conditioning is out of the question, though experimentation (and another GMCMHWiki entry) is encouraged. And we'll assume you want to be able to run a modern 12 volt compressor refrigerator or the 12 volt section of a propane refrigerator (control section, not a resistive load), run lighting and entertainment devices (ideally all 12 volt), and use an inverter to power 15 amps AC (hair dryer, microwave, etc.) for less than an hour total each day. Given that, 280 amp hours of capacity is a good choice.
