How long would a small 18 ah battery like this run a propane refrigerator and all the other parasitic draws on a typical travel trailer?

Unfortunately for three of the past four years you'd need A/C in most of the western US and Canada just to be able to keep your windows closed for forest fire smoke. :nonono:

But yes a learning...

Old Navy, thank you, very useful. I have a Champion 2500 watt gen, which is basically the same as yours but with additional surge. I haven't gone to solar yet, if ever.

I'm not sure that WFCO is...

I'm talking about 30 amps at 12 (or 14.5) volts, not 30 amps of 120 volt power. I suspect a 1000 watt generator would power that.



Thank you--I'll look into that.



It would only be 15...

I went back to the manual--I didn't think it covered this issue, but it does. It's apparently a 6 amp charger, so by getting a 30 amp charger I'd reduce the time by 5 times!

Is that specific to the Micro Minnie system or just a certain type of battery?

What I'm trying to determine is whether it would make more sense to invest in a separate large charger and somehow...

Creativepart, you'll be happy to know I'm taking this advice. Seems like the least hassle, and with only two batteries it seems like inverter use would be very limited. And in any case since I like...

Yes, but an ordinary inverter wouldn't take care of my small generator issue, which is my primary concern. I wouldn't do an inverter just to get 110 power otherwise. I do have 2 12 volt batteries...

It's more the weight and space of the second generator I want to avoid. Cost it would be cheaper even with Honda generators. And larger single generators are too heavy.

Also, I'd actually prefer...

Right. Before knowing they were integrated I was viewing this as being an easier install than the smart power supply and inverter install that you mentioned in another thread. I may have to...

Thank you both. The reason I was asking is I was considering getting a hybrid inverter, which would replace the charger. If that's integrated into the fuses that could be problematic. I'll need to...

Location of Stock Charging Unit 2019 2106 DS

The title says it all, except the reason I'm asking. My trailer is in storage right now, so it's not easy to look at it.
