Not sure about a mini-split cycling down with the typical poorly insulated RV. But if a 4A 120V unit does the job then for 12V use a 11x multiplier. So 44Ah for 1 hour and 440Ah for 10 hours. For flooded batteries 880Ah with a 50% discharge would work. Thats 8 6V GC2 deep cycle batteries weighing about 500 lbs.
Thats great - err oh wait - It's day 2 and I now have to recharge the batteries... Gens looking better...
Ha, I get your point, but how long do you think it would take to charge that battery bank with a generator? If I'm staying in a National Park and limited to generator use during the day, it still solves my problem of having air conditioning overnight!
