Generator Help
I have been going back and forth on whether to get a generator/invertor and if so how big? Lots of people say they use it only once or twice... others sound like the couldn't have made it without one...

Space was too valuable in our truck camper so we didn't buy even a small generator for our 8-week trip. The biggest use of camper battery power was the furnace fan in the morning and maybe the water pump.
During our 3 nights at Teklanika in Denali NP, we just idled the truck engine for 30 minutes during the allowed times and we were charged back up. I don't usually idle the diesel for that long but made the exception there.
Driving around a bit after boondocking also did the trick.
