Crock pot cooking while traveling?
My wife picks up our new Class A motorhome tomorrow (I'm working for another 10 days out of town). This is our first r/v with an inverter. My question is if we can put a crock pot cooking going down...

I don't have a class A, but that is my favorite use on the crock pot. I like to drive really long days, so something I can put on during a lunch stop and will be cooked for the end of the day's drive is great.
The crock is a little big for the sink, so it sits on the floor of the trailer, kind of wedged in by the door. makes it easy to check on during stops, and low to the ground so it's not getting tossed around as I bumble down the road.
edit: for power, I have lots of battery and 2800 watt inverter. If I'm going somewhere with hookups, I just let it run down the batteries, my crock draws 400 watts on HI. If I'm Wallydocking that night, or somewhere else without hookups, I start the generator that lives in the truck bed. can't even hear it once I'm on the highway.
