Essentially I have a 1100 watt inverter to power my entertainment gear. I don't plan to use inverter to power anything more.
I don't really have room for a large battery bank.
I had to chuckle at your can't have too much inverter comment.

Honestly I consider my inverter usage a test. If it works well I can see increasing my battery storage, but for now I'm trying to gauge how well the stock setup works.
Just a FYI, you don't need a large battery bank to run a large inverter. I just prepared a lunch and two days leftovers of beef-stroganoff over rice.
I used a 1300W induction stove top and consumed 350 Watt-hours of 120VAC from a 2200W inverter. Care to guess the size of the battery bank?
How about a single 135AH AGM. The lowest Volts were 11.45, nowhere near the 10.5V low Voltage disconnect(LVD) of the inverter.
I don't have a large RV.

What you are really showing is the ability of AGM's vs. wet cell.
AGM can rebound from 11.45 without issue. I think running your typical wet cell at 11.45 may do damage?
