as some may have read in the class B forum, i'm planning on building a class B van
only area i'm fairly weak in is electrical power draws - i've found DC to AC power inverters that will deliver 900Watts of 120V
i was thinking to install two 100 amp hour deep cycle batteries, the sprinter dodge van has an auxiliary battery isolater and disconnect as an option, as well as a 220 amp alternator.
will i be able to run a small coffee maker, 700 watt microwave or a tv (LCD) when parked with no generator running, and if so, for how long? don't plan on using all three at same time but for instance, the TV, without knowing the current draw, but using my desktop computer as a ref, it's drawing .9 amp 120V) - how long would those two batteries support TV useage before having to turn generator on?
tks
