Jayco ceiling fan

Mine in my Cardinal is AC operated

My onboard inverter ONLY powers the residential fridge.. IF your talking about plugging into an inverter/genny, like a Honda EU2000, then it should work just fine.. Mine did. The ceiling fan should only work of AC power..

So you outlets still don't work? Just the fridge?

I have an ONBOARD 1000 watt pure Sine Wave Inverter that is just for the Fridge.. It only runs 1 outlet, and gets it's power from the battery bank.

I have a feeling that you may be confusing what I have, with a portable inverter/Generator like the Yamaha, or Honda EU2000. The kind you set on the ground, start, and plug your camper into??

Nope we have a champion 3100 inverter but can only run it till 10. Looking for something to run the outlets and ceiling fan over night. We added a second battery.

this is a different question from your original post.

If you are talking about an exhaust fan, it's likely a Fantastic and runs on 12v. If it's a ceiling fan it could run on either 12 or 110.

As far as the outlets, those obviously need shore, gen, or inverter to make AC

If you need an inverter, check the local Lowes. They were carrying a line of inverters and Solar gear and decided to get out of that business and sell it all out. My local Lowes still has 300w PSW inverters for $37 hidden in the lighting section where no one seems to look

My AF ceiling fan runs only off 110v. I have run it off my inverter (Xantrex Prowatt 2000). I don't recall what the power draw was, but I would be reluctant to run it for very long in a two battery system. It would depend on the size of your inverter (is it enough to run it?), other loads, amp-hour capacity of your battery bank and how you recharge when it gets down to 50 percent (solar, generator, etc.).

On our 2011 Jayco the living area ceiling fan is residential 115v

You are looking for an inverter/charger that will run your outlets, etc. It takes the place of your converter and it is pretty expensive and has about 8 other components that go with it. We installed a sub panel and moved the outlets including the microwave over to the sub panel so they can work using the inverter or on shore power. You also need a transfer switch, battery heat detector, inverter monitor, and a whopping big fuse. Most factory inverter installations (usually in motorhomes) only have a few outlets dedicated to the inverter where we have all our outlets with the exception of two of them wired for inverter use. We have a 5th wheel and have 4 Group 27 12 volt batteries. Using an inverter really uses lots battery power. May we ask why you need power overnight when sleeping? The ceiling fans will work on 12 volts so you can run them. fridge and water heater will run on propane so no worries there. If you are thinking of TV watching, you can buy a small inverter just to run the TV but that will not power the other outlets.

Forgot to also say the 2 exhuast fans in the roof & stove ventahood run on 12volts.
