Right after I unplugged the DC amps fluctuated between the 10 and 25A lights.
You NEED to figure out where all that power is GOING....most of it anyway. I suspect that much if it is conversion loss in your WAY overkill inverter.
Then.....I would suggest that you make it a point to park where shore power is available, unless that just absolutely isn't possible.
And you still haven't mentioned anything about a generator.
I have two 6 V deep cycles. My TV is 12 V and draws about 60 watts, IIRC. They will run about 3 hours of TV, my little gas furnace and all the other "necessary" 12 V stuff for a long 8 hour night. Might be down to 11.5 but still starts the gen the next morning.
Oh and all of my lights are LED.
