Battery or no battery????????
I have a Jayco Hummingbird 17MBS. I realized that every campground we want to stay has full hookup. (Power, Water, Sewer). So im curious....do I HAVE TO HAVE a battery? We do not plug in to shore powe...

This is a camper
While this is a trailer
Unless the converter manufacturer clearly states its product can serve as a standalone power supply I would call the manufacturer about this.
And if your travel time to and from to the campground is always less than 2 hours each way my vote is to buy a car battery, not an RV battery. You will save money and get a 5-year minimum warranty. Just do not fudge about running around with more than a tiny battery load to and from the campground.
Batteries act as shock absorbers for cheap converter dirty power which is called "ripple"
