The general consensus is that I was thinking way too small- those trickle chargers I was looking at won't do me any good. Now I know. I'm not looking at these for camping actually- I hope to be full timing by fall. I list my house next month, hope it sells quickly. I am exploring options so if I decide to stay for a week or so somewhere without electric hookups, I can have power to run a light at night, a 12 volt fan if I need it, without having to start the van just to charge the batteries. My fridge runs on propane, and I can use D batteries for my light, I also have a battery fan, my radio/CD player runs on AC, DC or D batteries. I guess I'll wait until I get out there and see exactly what I will need. Thanks for all the input.
