There is another 'PLUS' for those of us that has a RV TRAILER around. Here where we live sometimes have our power grid gets knocked out usually with Hurricane or Heavy Icing periods.
Since my RV TRAILER is equipped with BATTERY OPERATIONS it sure is nice to run a couple of 120VAC Extension cords into the house to run our home electronics, run a few lights, keep the fridge going etc... Or we move temporarily to the RV Trailer and live in it for a couple of days when we are without county power.
Then I can run my small 2KW Generator for three hours each day to re-charge my batteries to be able to do all of this all over again for the next day/night run off the RV Trailer batteries.
During the past few years I have had to do a couple of these week long periods running off my RV Batteries...
We had PATIO PARTIES every night including cook-outs letting the neighbors catch up with their HDTV shows etc...
