you will never have enough batteries or big enough inverters to power an electric on demand water heater. you will need at least 5 thousand dollars in solar panels and charge controllers to charge that many batteries.

I decided to go with the LP on demand water heater. But as for the batteries I am putting into my bus and my solar charge setup money is not an object when you are investing into your own future.
