Do you run house AC while on the road
I am contemplating the purchase of a motor home... class A or Super C. I currently pull a 31’ trailer and am looking to consolidate the living and driving into 1 vehicle, adding conveniences like auto...

Some of these rigs have big inverters, battery banks and solar... does anyone try to use an inverter to power the AC - and pull power from an alternator? And solar?
I guess anything is possible, but practical? Each AC would be 1500 watts - 15 amps running. That doesn’t seem like a big load to add to an alternator.
I’m not worried about fuel use, just hrs of generator use.
I think Mr. Mark once said he had his Prevost built with a massive Li Ion battery bank large enough to run his AC. Like 24 batteries or something. If I recall the cost was about $10k for the batteries.
