Depending on what you want to run off the inverter depends on the size. I can run my microwave without issue but that does put a hurt on the batteries. We change our electronics overnight, have a baby monitor on to watch the toddler down below, and run a fan all night. We use about 10% of our DC power over night. With our solar setup we are fully charged between 11am-2pm depending on solar coverage.

That's brilliant and really maks sense. How did you run the wires from the relay to the converter? On my 3820 FK I have the inverter in the center storage.
