Induction cooktop
Does an induction cooktop run off of the inverter or is it genset only if not plugged in. I am referring to a cooktop in a large DP. Tiffin, Newmar, or Berkshire. thanks

You need to be a touch more specific.
On my RV I use a portable Induction cooktop and it works fine on the TRUE SINE inverter or generator or shore power.
I know if I buy another TT, I will ask for a propane DELETE ! 1000w-2000W PSW inverter, probably four 6V golf cart batteries and a 2000W generator (or maybe 2) and you should be all set.
Boondocking would require some good solar and generator use for hot water and to be sure the batteries were up for the evening. Good insulation and heated mattress pad will get you through most cool nights. If you boondock below freezing, you will still need a propane furnace. Non-vented propane heaters release too much moisture to be run overnight.
I am thinking seriously about moving from 4 golf cart batteries to 4 Renogy 12V 100ahr lithium iron batteries. The only thing holding me back right now is $3200.
It is never a good idea to run an unvented heater in a small space when everyone is asleep. A lot of things can go wrong.
