    It will depend on what appliances you have running.
    You’re not going to run any 110VAC devices are you?
    Forget about trying to run an air-conditioner.

    Frankly, I’d just worry about the 12V circuitry.
    Add up the watts of all the bulbs you have.
    That’s the built-in low-voltage lighting.
    Just use the solar panel to re-charge the batteries.
    Run your furnace, frig. & stove on propane of course.

    i think you can resort to using an inverter for light duty needs. but you must have a separate battery for that so you could recharge if used up.
