Never off Grid.

On 50 amp service to converter/charger (Charge Wizard) to RV every evening from check-in until check-out each travel day.

5th wheel plugged into truck while traveling with usual travel day of 8 - 10 hours.

2000W Magnum pure sine inverter powering Fisher/Paykel residential inverter style reefer while traveling.

On 50 amp service while at destination.
