Voltage, amps, and watts
I'm a little confused on inverter use. I know that dealing with AC current, watts = volts x amps and using that formula, when I'm plugged into power, my 1200 watt coffee pot uses 10 amps of my 30 amp...

Wow! Those are some great responses. We do a lot of dry camping in the high country of Wyoming, in the most secluded places that we can find. It's high enough and cool enough that an AC is not needed. So, we crank up the generator for breakfast and dinner; this is for coffee pot, microwave, induction cooktops, and charging batteries. Other than that, it's strictly battery. We've been doing it this way for a lot of years but I've never really cared about usage. Now, I'm looking into solar panels and want all the info I can get. Thanks for all the help.
