Unless you are using the batteries everyday, you do not need a 45 amp

A 6 amp from Harbor freight is about $200.

I believe that would be for a 12 volt battery. For a 24 volt battery
you'd need two panels in series and a 24 volt charge controller.

Or an inverter to your charger.

More complexity, an extra 12 volt battery to drive the inverter, much
higher system losses. Not a good plan in my opinion.
