The most power hungry (modern) TV I’ve seen was 100W. Most fridges nowadays are similar, 100W but intermittent.
A fridge is not “the tiniest bit of convenience”.
Box fans don’t really help when it’s 100F+ and 90%+ humidity. Where I am it you leave a house without air condition for even a month during the summer you’ll have mold and the ceiling will be falling down.
For anyone that reads this and thinks that cheap solar setups leave you barely scraping by, I’ll giv e acounter example. I helped my parents do solar on their RV. It’s 720W of panels, 3000W inverter output and cost a little under $3k but could have been cheaper, the cost is due a bit to us being inexperienced at the time and also overbuilding it to allow for more panels. It can run all the modern conveniences (for up to 3 days with no sun) except the big airconditioner, but can run a window unit that conditions the bedroom and dries the rest of the RV. If we were to do it again though we could make it run the big one with pretty much no increase in price.
