Re: how many watts of panels are needed

did you do a loads list?  are those numbers watts (power) or watt-hours (energy)?  if energy we can do some figuring for you.  if power, then do a loads list.  if we know your watt-hours per day, and where you are, we can give a rough estimate on amount of photovoltaics needed.
