I bought a small 100w inverter to plug into 12v socket to use for tv when stopped for the night. When tv tried to come on, inverter went off, so I bought a 175w Go Power and does the same thing. I then plugged to shore power but left tv plugged to inverter and they both work fine. I tested the batteries with a load tester and they both come up fine. I am still thinking that it may be the batteries, as I am assuming that the load duplicates starting vs lasting in deep cycle. Heading out next week and really would like to figure this out. By the way, one battery is about 3 yrs old and the other about 2. Any thoughts?
