I've come to the conclusion that nobody here knows anything about minisplit air conditioners vs the regular stand topside airconditioner that come stand with a RV.
They are inherently more efficient than RV air conditioners is the biggest difference.
As far as amp draw that will depend on load and heat. No one can give you an exact number. Takes a lot of energy to move the heat out of your poorly insulated RV sitting in the sun.
You can limit the cooling or add more solar panels and battery until it works for you in most conditions. I expect 1500 watts solar and 12,000 watt/hours battery would be about minimum. Is that even realistic for your RV?
