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.

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