30A or 50A models are both good. Our RV is 50A

If we use a dogbone connector and plug in to a 20A 110V receptacle it will keep the batteries charged and we can run TV, coffee maker, etc. No AC, no Electric HW heater. Might be able to run fridge on Electric.

The inverter depends on what all you want to power.
The length or duration of DC power coming to inverter depends on your battery Amp Hour Capacity.
A 1500W or 3000W inverter doesn’t do much good for very long if you only have 50 - 100 Amp Hours from your batteries.

It’s more involved than just saying get this snd that.
More information is needed, ie: what you already have and what you hope to accomplish.
