Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
Six hundred watts of solar may be overkill. I’d consider wiring for 600 but I initially installing only 400. What is your proposed battery bank’s max amp hours?

You've got a good start with Will's book. I would take his advice and run with it. That said LarryW21 has a pretty good suggestion of starting with 400 watts and see if you need more. No need to spend money you don't have to spend. I would size the wire for 600 watts (50 amps) so you don't have to replace it if you go to 600 watts. I'm not sure what the size is but I'm sure it's in your book. Good luck.
