1.8 gallons is the tank capacity on the diesel heater. it was left on during the day once, and ran out during the last night of this trip. If I pretend those are equivalent, it's about 3 nights at around freezing without the ability to actually cycle the heater.
I did get another diesel heater controller to see if I can get on/off working, but I apparently didn't leave the wiring free on the backside of the cabinet to be able to pull it out and plug it in.
two showers and 4 days, had plenty of water left when we got home.
Left propane on the same tank as the second half of the 10 day trip, still have some left. ran propane furnace for a couple hours too. Will be interesting to see how much I put in those tanks when I get them filled.
Ran an 18qt cooker on inverter all day cooking chili, that is almost as much draw as airconditioning. it would draw about 115 amps from the batteries when heating. No issues, and I think I was at 35% at the end of the day. Didn't get out the IR camera to look at all connections but I might use that cooker for a load test. I did heat up something in the microwave for a minute at the same time - worked fine, saw 140s. I am wired to handle 400 amps, I think the batteries will supply 100 or 150 each.
If the remote start on the truck worked so I could fire it from the camper if needed, I would list the generator for sale. I would add more solar (800w) before I would add more battery (450ah). IIRC I was able to pull about 1.8 - 1.9 kwh per day, with no shading and sunny mornings and partly to mostly cloudy afternoons. I'll have to check the graphs and and see if I was clipping with the single charge controller. Midsummer it would clip a bit, not sure if I should in late October. I think the Victron stores those logs for quite a while so I can look later.
The Renogy battery shunt gave good numbers under heavy load on the way down, but the next day when charging it fell behind and read well below what the BMS were telling me. It did the same sitting in the shop for a month, Renogy was showing 60ish but batteries were above 80%. Bus cabling is working perfectly, batteries always read within a percent of each other by BMS.
I think for the winter I may try to discharge to 80% and hit the battery disconnect. I would solicit opinions on that if anyone has any...
