This may come across as a "Newbie" question, (mostly because I am), but what is actually supposed to work while not plugged into shore power and running off battery.
I Don't know why I haven't tried this until now, but it seems that when I am unplugged from shore power, only 12v seems to work.
I would have thought that at least some lower draw items, such as a TV would work, but it seems that that is not the case.
There does not seem to be any "converted" power anywhere.
12v side works fine. Trailer is equipped with 2 new deep cycles.
Does this sound like I have an issue with the inverter/power management system?
