I could go two weeks before using near half the battery, and then do a recharge at home on a regular battery charger.
I could do that no problem. No panel needed.
Now if I hit a homerun with sales, maybe I will buy a panel and enjoy the convenience of never moving the battery.

It has 100 amp hours not amps it can out out a tremendous amount of amps in a split second.
I rounded up for leeway to 1.5 for start up of the motor.
So lets say everything draws 3 amps a day at the very most you will then be using 21 amp hours in one week from a 100 amp hour battery.
No problem at all you could even go for 2 weeks before charging and only use 42 amp hours.
This is what I would do and skip the solar panel.
Even then If I wanted to charge the battery off grid I would go with wind power.
