RV FEATURE
When it came to installing an inverter, I purposely chose to install it into our ute rather than the caravan. The reason: we move the ute much more regularly than the caravan. Every time we drive the ute, we can recharge the auxiliary battery at a rate of 40A per hour. We hook-up the caravan to the inverter, the same as you would at a caravan park, and even though we could use all our appliances, we still use power sparingly, usually just to run the air-fryer or washing machine if near a water resupply point.
Elvin Pal specifically chose to fit their inverter and secondary battery in the ute – and the reason makes good sense.
I will admit, when I see a great big 12V setup, usually on YouTube, inside a family caravan with many hundreds of amp hours of lithium batteries, ideal solar panel ratio( 2W of solar per 1Ah of battery), a big inverter that can run everything in the caravan, the microwave, the air-fryer, even the air-conditioner and a dishwasher, I do say to myself,“ Gee, that would be nice.”
But here’ s the thing: regardless of your setup, we all end up at and enjoy the same destinations! Happy travels.
