Adding Inverter for dry camping
I would like to add an additional battery (have one group 27 now), possibly a solar charging system and an inverter. I hate that the 120V outlets don't work on battery power. Seems crazy you can't...

I'm liking the idea of pulling the converter/charger and installing an inverter/charger.
What about my issue with the distance from the batteries to the converter being about 16 feet?
I did not mess around with my system. The run from the battery bank required about 8' of feed cable but welding guage cable was used so no VD, voltage drop.
The inverter/charger is similar to this one Magnum pure sine wave . Not cheap & should not be comared to lower powered modified sine wave inverters or solar systems which are charging systems, not 120VAC producing systems.
The best inverter is useless without an adequate battery bank to power it.
