If you frequently run into low voltage situations and just can't live without your A/C then consider a voltage regulator such as a Hughes Autoformer that will automatically step up the voltage whenever it may drop excessively. In our case we only use A/C a few times a year and in our climate can easily live without it for a few hours if need be so simply having my EMS disconnect power to the trailer until it's safe to reconnect it works just fine. For others who consider A/C an absolute necessity the best answer is an autoformer, perhaps with a genset on hand as back up.
I see people all around me running AC at every campground, apparently they aren't having trouble.
Sure, and you'll see all sorts of people towing travel trailers with minivans - doesn't make it a good idea. ;)
