Will the better inverters switch fast enough to keep constant power to the 110 outlets if the surge protector kills power (low voltage or something triggering it)? If so, then I'm good to go without the need for a UPS, but I had heard even some people's DVR's and Sat receivers were rebooting whenever power source auto-switched...
that depends on the units being used and the sensitivity of the devices
like it was said, an inverter and your RV batteries make one large UPS
IF you set it up correctly
i have two inverters one for the fridge and high power, one for the electronics
the TV , laptop , bedroom alarm clock ,etc are always powered by inverter
the batteries are keep charged by a 100 amp converter
shore power or generator powers the converter to charge batteries, along with 505 watts of solar power
the batteries always power the inverters
one giant UPS..
i can flip breakers, pull shore cord, shut off generator
nothing beeps or blinks or burps
the inverters are always on 24/7-52weeks
unless i have shut down to work on something
