No problems with electric though. The fridge has been on all the time,lights ,pump ,extractor fan in wet room,TV and water boiler 12v start up.It has been sunny in the day time and There was 180 mies each way to get there,so battery fully charged. This is my current set up,going to add another battery soon. Water tank 70L Waste tank 50L Toilet cass. 17L Battery 125ah Solar panel 100 watt Compressor fridge.

My toilet usually lasts up to two weeks. But I do the wee in bottles which helps it last longer.
The water can last up to a week.
This is mine:
Water tank 50L + 20L in carriers Waste tank 25L Toilet Porta Potti 25L Battery 220ah Solar panel 90 watt 3 way fridge Gas 2x 6kg
I'm going to add another solar panel and a propex heater shortly.

Mine is very simple:
20L water tank - lasts almost a week if careful (not used for drinking) 20 L waste tank - lasts almost indefinitely because because the outlet tap doesn't fully close(!) Loo - N/A Battery 115ah with split charger No solar panel 3-way fridge Gas 1 x 3.9kg lasts 4 months
- so the only things I need to replenish is water weekly and occasional gas when it runs low and this is checked via luggge scales.

We have 100 litre tank which last a few days? And we empty the toilet every one or two days or use the campsite toilet.

About 3 days for us with 70 litre water tank and 20 litre cassette. We don't have a solar panel yet, but battery is new and we only really use it for lighting. We bought a small battery powered Sony radio fron Tesco for about a fiver and 2 AA batteries seem to go on forever. At the last meet we had it on for about 60 hours straight and it is still going strong, we also used it constantly on our 8 days in Scotland on the same batteries!
We only use TV if on a site on EHU so not very often.

To add to that, Julie usually reads her books using a small battery powered 15 LED lamp, which also seems to go on forever!
