Doug, Keystone offers this as an option when ordering a RV.
SOLARFLEXโข 1200I-L
The gold standard for solar power performance. With 1,200 watts of solar collection and two powerful Dragonflyยฎ 270 Ah lithium energy storage batteries, SolarFlex 1200i-L is the ideal setup for power users looking for extended boondocking adventures.
WHERE does that state it will run a AC on 120 volt? Doug
COMPONENTS
2, 30A solar roof ports w/ MC4 connectors & 10 AWG MPPT solar charging circuits
4, Future Solutions 300-watt solar panels & CS2 splitters
2, 50A Victron SmartSolar MPPT charge controllers w/Bluetooth app
3000-watt inverter/charger w/ built-in transfer switch (all outlets inverted)
2, soft start air conditioners
Zamp Solar portable solar charge port
Victron SmartShunt battery monitor w/Bluetooth app
Victron Cerbo GX
Battery Guardian
2, 270 Ah Dragonfly Energy heated Lithium-ion batteries
Precision Circuits power control system
that system will run the AC, for how long is the question
I would guess though about 8 to 12 hours before the batteries are close to dead during the day, assuming the AC never shuts off and that's all that is running. Although with 1200watts of solar you're getting close to that daytime sustainable AC depending on the AC size and the type of solar day, but still a little low in my mind.
It does NOT state that the roof AC 120 circuit is part of the Inverter. Just, ALL receptacles. You could rewire to connect the roof AC, but there is NO WAY 2 Lithium Batteries will run a roof AC more than a few hours. Remember, Diesel and some Gas Motorhomes have up to 6 batteries and a 3000 watt Inverter and they do NOT wire the Roof AC's thru the Inverter. Just not effective to do so. Doug

Well, the plot thickens. I just got off of the phone with Heart land I asked them to look up my build based on VIN.
They told me that my trailer was supposed to be shipped with the 50 amp cord that I have but that there is supposed to be an โadapterโ between cord and trailer. He stated that the trailer itself is 30 amp but when I told him that I want to run a second AC he said that will be no problem at all.
I asked if this is some kind of hybrid between 50 and 30 and he said yes exactly.
So everything in my trailer is 120vโฆ. And itโs 30 amp but supposedly I can run 2 ACs?
I was hoping for clarification but this makes the whole thing even more convoluted.
I talked to my sales guy and he said that was the craziest thing heโd ever heard, I donโt know much but I have to agree with him!
Well, it appears that both Heartland AND the Dealer will lie to fix this problem. What Heartland told you is NONSENSE. YOU CANNOT RUN 2 RV AC UNITS ON 30 AMP SERVICE. PERIOD. You stated MY link is the wall connection to your trailer. That is 50 amp. Period. You need to go to the trailer and open the 120 breaker box access lid. Until YOU do this, there can be no good resolution to this thread. IF your breaker box has (2) 50 amp breakers, your RV IS 50 amp. Doug
PS, I had a Jayco electrical engineer tell me that I could NOT add a 3rd AC to a customers 39 foot Jayco with 50 amp service, because 3 AC's would draw about 42 amps and that would leave only 8 amps for the rest of the RV. I e mailed his boss and told him that person needed to be FIRED. 50 amp RV service is a TOTAL of 100 amp service.
