Not being an expert on most of this topic I can offer one piece of advice. Most inverters produce modified sine wave AC power which is OK for most appliances yet not OK for sensitive electronics such as computors, CPAP machines, etc. Pure sine wave inverters are more expensive but likely worth the investment. I'll be watching others opinions on this as I am considering this route as well.

Want to install a simple system for Boondocking looking for advice?

Biggest item would be the Micro wave 1100 wattS
than just tv and direct tv

what size inverter would be recommened?
I need new batteries what size 12 or 6 volt?
Do I need to disconnect my converter at anytime?
Do I need to disconnect my inverter when generator is running to charge batteries?
Is it ok to mount inverter in battery compartment?
Plan to run extension cord from invertor to living area for power, is this ok?

Thanks for ideas and help!!!
