I dont know I must look it up. But cooling and heating are usually responsible for heavy draw on a system.

That is what i thought, but i do have a meter on my power board and it was giving me readings of not too much above 1amp, it cuts out at 10 so i know htat i draw less than 120 watts (not inc the computer) at any given time. the system i was looking at has 6 200Ah batteries 1.5Kw PV array and i was going to put in a generator to kick in if the batteries ever get too low due to weather. it sounds like that should be more than enough ...

@ Colin, thanks that helps a lot
