portable battery power

I want to carry something with me in our TT that I can hook to my TT battery to operate the slides. My wife and I are going to do some dry camping for 3 days or so. I want to take something with me easy to use to operate slides with the TT's battery will be weak.

I do want a generator. I know I can hook my truck to the camper but I want something in addition to that.

I would appreciate your suggestions.

Thanks.

    If you can do it, consider adding a second battery connected in parallel with the present one. We have dual batteries on our HiLo and raise the top from the batteries. There is always power left for dry camping. If your present battery is getting old you should probably buy two new batteries for better results.
