I would move the inverter up into a protected portion of the living quarters or into the compartment NEXT to the battery compartment. Two reasons for this. one is thermal control the living space is likely cooler than the storage spaces in the summer.
And add more battery.. I'm not sold on the alleged advantages of AGM by the way. I think the major advantage is to the sellers (More profit).
When I traveled by horse line-shack to line-shack my uncle thought I was nuts to change the lighting from standard kerosene to hurricane lamp. Shoot the pot-bellied stove was good enough to warm things up, firewood was lodgepole pine. Yeah, I did have to wait a bit for water to boil to make cowboy coffee but my day got off to a great start.
Battery? I didn't need no stinking battery!
