Ideal has a 150 surface mount breaker listed on their website. It's the only breaker they list. I know, possible it's over or undersized, but it's 90%+ likely that's the right size.

We are over thinking this

Why would you plan power consumption, amp draw, and the battery bank based on a breaker size if the actual consumption rate could be 25% of the breaker size? I don't know about DC motor, but most AC motors can have a momentary surge when starting under partial load, of 3 to 4 times running amps.
