Why not just be prepared to have a primitive camp.gas lights and 
stove.everything else can be 12 v.
   Some of us are not trying to take home with us when we camp.

  Subject: [tcb] Question About Dual Battery Set-Up And Solar Panels




          Hello. I need to get a deep cycle RV battery for my Westfalia 
Campmobile. I'm seeing about a gazillion types with vastly varying prices. 
($120-$600!)  Is it really all that complicated or can I just get the cheap 
Sears Marine/RV battery?  ($120) 
          Also, I have noticed a lot of Westies with solar panels. Why? If they 
have a campsite with electrical hook-up the battery can charge itself. If not, 
the alternator will charge it during a short drive. I don't get it. Why would 
anybody want to drop $400 for a solar panel? (Tell me it isn't just to be 
"green".) 
          Thanks for your time,...  )< (- (_ (_ `(
