Couple of Inverter Questions
I'm headed out to NASCAR tomorrow morning, which means 2 1/2 days of dry camping. Last year the fridge quit working on propane (okay, I broke it) so I had to run the generator 24x7 to keep the fridge ...

That's 2.5 amps at 120 volts- more like 30 amps at 12 volts, so like 3 hours, using the above figures.
Thanks both for the replies.
Yes - forgot to convert back to 12V.
They are 109 amp-hour batteries. And yeah, with the other phantom loads probably a lot less time available. I guess long story short I shouldn't depend on the inverter for the fridge. The TV is LED, and the satellite receiver can't draw much...but it all adds up. The big draw would be the fridge, which I'm thinking I'm going to forget about. I'll just run the generator if the propane fails.
