My solar powered project scheme..

[greenthumbz]

Hi all. I am starting a project and I was in need of your expertise. I am trying to conduct enough energy to power my plasma, ac unit, computer, n little other stuff for at least 12 hours a day and these components is about 400 watts total. Here is my setup and was wondering if this would work. I am fairly new to this so any advice good or bad would help.

on the pictures below.. ill be using 12 volt batteries. and also I have a question has anyone ever used the Powerfilm rollable solar panel, the ones in this link

The panels:
At $ 11.60 a watt, :
Unless you a forced to put the panels on the ground, there are better cost/watt panels out there.

The layout:
Basic layout is good. I just hope you do not plan to tie the inverter AC out in to a grid-tied AC distribution panel. The AC gen set would tell me this is a off-grid installed, But don't want to assume anything.

The Loads:
400 watts, I thing you are way low.
AC, if it is a window unit will draw 500 watts alone.
TV = 100 to 200 watts
Computer- desktop 100-300 watts, laptop 50-100 watts, nettop 5-20 watts
Other stuff- xxx watts

To find out the true loads, I would get this:
