George,
I think 200ah of batteries is a little on the skimpy side. My 650w micro draws 1100w and you don't want to constrain that choice too much. It is very useful to have 2000w inverter capacity if you ever want to run some other small stuff concurrently or plug in a vacuum, hair dryer, toaster or other high draw. A 400ah bank is mostly to enable that large inverter draw without too big of a voltage drop.
Your solar panels, OTOH, are likely overkill for that 200ah bank. Wasting some money here?
I have a similar electric kitchen draw as yours and lots of pc, stereo, small electronics. I have no solar and do not need a genset as long as I get some alternator hours every four days or so. If I added a single 150w solar panel I could sit still forever.
I did not think it would work this well and I bought an eu2000i in lieu of solar panels when I did my design seven years ago. That genset has proven not to be required for any normal boondocks.
