Hey Brett, are you looking for an upgraded battery setup that can handle the amp draw of your camper?
If so, we need to determine the current draw of all of your accessories for the duration of three days. Can you check your fridge for it's amp draw? The solar will help but we would also need to know how many hours of sunlight its going to get per day as well.
How long do the 2 100 amp hour batteries last?
