So I can get that inverter...wire it with a 12v adapter...and use it. And the only downfall will but is that it won't produce the full 1000w. No damage to anything?

Of course, most of those male cigarette lighter plugs are fused anyway but if that 12 vdc outlet in your trailer you're planning to use is part of the Winegard wall plate then it will be protected by a fused circuit as well. It's maximum rating is 8 amps or ~ 100 watts. ... the inverter won't care if you draw more than that but you will blow any fuse that happens to be in that circuit once you exceed whatever it's rating is. Certainly a 1000 watt inverter is overkill for this application alone but if you can buy one on sale as I did for $199 + tax you'll then have the option of making better use of it later if your dry camping plans expand and you'd like to power other devices. In my case, because I wired mine "whole house", I now have the convenience of even briefly powering our coffee machine or electric toaster or most importantly my wife's hair dryer :R (albeit on it's low heat setting) simply by plugging into any receptacle in the camper. Just this morning I wired in the remote control, installing it inside the camper, so I can turn the inverter on/off without even going outside or having to unlock the front passthrough where the inverter is located. :B
