Late to the party. I have a Dirtbox canopy camper. I'm struggling with how I want the inside. That said, solar. I'm very pleased with what I did.
  • 2x 190 Zamp Solar panels, wired series. The 200W Renogy is a great option, but they were not available when I built mine. Another option are the flat panels from https://lensunsolar.com/.
  • 40A Renogy MPPT controller.
  • 2x 100ah LiFePo batteries.
My camper is stand alone with power. I have a tiny 8A DC-DC charger, but I never use it. Batteries run the lighting in the camper, several outlets (12V, 24V, USB), two fridge (50qt ARB and 20qt ICECO), and a water pump.

Originally I had a 100ah battery with a single 190W panel. It wasn't enough on an Alaska/Canada trip a year ago. I came home and doubled the system and it's been just dandy.

Pictures are not current, but close enough.
