The frig and the water heater use very little battery power when on propane. I have a pair group 31 12 volt batteries and easily go 3 days if I run the furnace in the morning only. The furnace will have the biggest battery draw, but we use sleeping bags to help. We percolate our coffee on the stove (better flavor) and go without a drip coffee maker avoiding the use of an inverter. I think inverters are not very efficient because usually you have a larger battery bank.
