It's not off topic since recharging your batteries using your TV idling for long periods of time was suggested. And for some trucks idling for long periods of time this is not a good idea and different "bad things" might occur. Just one thing more to know in satisfying quietness requirements where our rigs boondock. A generator can be loud, but so might 50 idling trucks recharging their rig's batteries if a quiet generator is not possible especially if one of those trucks get broken by this, then recharging batteries is the least of their problems.

I and others are not ready to chance our trucks by letting them idle for long periods. It seems to work for you, but our posts are to create awareness in satisfying H. John's mention of quietness requirements (10pm to 7am is very typical). On the other hand I have two EU2000s I can use but I have other reasons for not boondocking and therefore can't attend and won't post these here.
