Somewhat wacko battery/solar question
I have two 100 Ah Renogy AGM batteries in my TT, connected to two Renogy 100 watts solar panels on the roof via a Renogy 30A PWM controller. I want to install an inverter so I can use coffee make...

What is draining your batteries during the night. 200AH even 100AH should be enough for the coffee maker (one pot) for sure and the microwave will depend on the length of time. Maybe I am out to lunch on the amount of power needed
We have a fridge that uses propane but the circuit uses the battery all night. In the evening, we have lights (all LED's), water pump and water heater that uses battery. Usually by the early morning before sunrise, the controller indicates 62 to 65% with voltage around 12.4. But the camper's own battery indicator usually shows 3 to 4 lights out of 4 lights.
I'm under the impression that AGM batteries shouldn't be discharged more than 50%. Hence the hesitation about using them in the morning for coffee maker or microwave.
