The cabin is 12x16. I have a mini fridge that takes 700 watts, so far only 4 LED Lights. The only other item was a microwave, 900 watts.
Looking at a solar kit produced close by.

Kyocera KD 140GX
Morningstar SS-10-12v
Werker deep cycle ATM battery
Aims D.C.-AC inverter, 1000 watts/3000 surge.
It upgrades to 4 panels.
Is it worth exploring more?
That microwave might have to be run by the Jenny as much as I use it.
Thanks for any suggestions/information

The price is a tad high for what that is IMO and I am pretty sure for $1400 you could find a better deal which is more capable. I'd suggest looking at retailer's local to you, then compare to ebay/amazon "Reputable Dealers".

Consider that a fully portable "system" as a package will cost more and look at how many of them are made / assembled, if your least bit handy, you can make your own portable "system" from a smaller RV / Boating kit or even a small Cabin kit.

That's probably good for the LED lights and a few uses of the microwave. I think that fridge will kill that battery in short order.
