I have a 2k go electric inverter/charger. I can run everything but a/c and frig. They are too high demand for me. I have 4 6-volt bats. But, I can stay dry with tv, fan and microwave, lights. I can stay 4 - 5 days without really paying attention to what's being used.

I have a 1200 watt inverter, with 2 group 27 12v deep cycle batteries, residential refrigerator and 3 outlets wired in the kitchen area. I can run the refrigerator, fan, tv, roku, phone chargers, coffee maker or toaster or microwave, I can go 2 days before I get a low voltage error. The tv, fan, roku, phone chargers can be run all the time, the refrigerator is also on all the time all other high draw appliances must be timed to when the refrigerator is not actually running but "idle".

Jetzen you run all that at the same time? That's a lot. Mine also has a 150w automatic charger which keeps the batteries up, floats them, etc. My installer put everything on the inverter line except reefer and ac. When not plugged in I use propane on the reefer and fans if I need them. TV is 50" and I know they're never off.

Al No not everything at one time. refrigerator is the only thing that is "on" all the time. 1100 watts at startup/600 watts while running/less than 100 watts when idle. Refrigerator does not run all the time but is turned on all the time. As needed use on everything else. Coffee maker or toaster or microwave can not be used if refrigerator is running but can be used when the refrigerator is idle (on but not running). |

I have the 1200W in my 356RLT but it appears the frig outlet is not being powered by the inverter. I'm stumped on that because that tells me when I'm towing I can't keep the frig on power coming from the truck. I have a residential elec only Samsung, it's not elec/gas. |
