I added my small wattage INVERTER with associated fuse block inside a cabinet which is as close as I can get to the battery bank switch and still be inside my POPUP trailer. Then I run 120VAC HD Extension cord with multiple receptacle head to the home entertainment and table near bedroom area. All extension cords are not visible and run behind cabinets or along the walls inside wiremode cable management items from LOWES.
Installing the INVERTER in this fashion keeps the noise down on the INVERTER if a fan is involved. Using larger 4AWG 12VDC cables direct connected to the battery bank insures excellent performance of the INVERTER.
We normally need about 300watts of 120VAC to run all the things we want to have on when camping off the power grid. My INVERTER is a AIMS 600WATT PURE SINE WAVE model from AMAZON $149...
