Ran 2 110V lines down through the floor, underneath the camper, and back up to the inverter. Thankfully we only had to drill one new hole inside a cabinet through the floor, the rest of the run could follow previous wires and holes in the battery box. Now we should be able to power our microwave and one more socket off our inverter.
I use the inverter connected directly to the 110 volt AC mains to run our microwave. I do however, have to throw the Charge/Converter Breaker in order to kill that huge AC draw. If I do that the Microwave runs fine off the 2000 Watt inverter. No need to try to charge the Batteries with the Inverter. The 285 Watts in Solar Panels does the job fine on the two 6 volt New River AGM Batteries. I run just a two foot long pair of 0 gauge Battery cables to the Inverter from the Batteries.
