The math just doesn’t add up. I'd hate for someone to think that they could spend 3 to 5 hundred bucks and think that they can "run everything" on their 15 amp outlet.

Just qualified it, thank you. I do run the AC and converter together. I do let the battery converter run alone for a while as I found the initial amp draw of that to be high and reduce from 6 to 4 if the battery is 'trickle charging' vs 'quick charge' - I'm not sure why do you know?



The basic rule is AC mutually exclusive of HW and microwave. Another qualification which has been discussed in here is you can't do this on "standard" extension cords if there is any distance to the trailer location.
