Adding Inverter for dry camping
I would like to add an additional battery (have one group 27 now), possibly a solar charging system and an inverter. I hate that the 120V outlets don't work on battery power. Seems crazy you can't...

Hi,
If you are going to bother with a transfer switch, I would urge you to go "whole hog" and install a sub panel so that only those devices you wish to power on the inverter will be active.
Otherwise a simple 30 amp female plug will meet the requirements.
Why? He, like I want all of the outlets to work. I understand the limitations. Can't use the AC, microwave, or fridge on AC.. But i's not a big deal. And I like the clock on the microwave, even if I can't cook anything in it. I can still use the kitchen time function... Doing as you suggest would mean resetting the clock all the time, and would cost more as well as being more complicated
