electrical outlets and inverter

I have a 2018 3791 RD. My question is Does the inverter only power the refrigerator or is there any other outlet powered up? It would be nice to have a bedroom outlet powered for a C-Pap.

I am only aware of the inverter running the fridge. Another concern would be your batteries being able to power both of them long enough

If you are referring to the factory installed inverter it is for powering the residential refridgerator exclusively. If your battery(ies) are stock provided by the dealer they probably won't be able to provice much more power than the bare minimum to keep your fridge running for a few hours.

Just picked up a 2020 3561, the inverter powers the refrigerator and 1 outlet in the livening room and one in the bedroom along with (haven't tested but they tell me) USB's

I own a 2019 3791 and the inverter is setup to only run the residential fridge. Also if your still running on the 2 12V batteries that the dealer installed they will not get you far on powering that let alone an outlet. I have since upgraded to 4 lithium batteries and 1200 Watts of solar but before hand I would only get maybe 8-10 hours running the fridge only.

If you want outlets then I would upgrade batteries to at lease 2 6V T105 Trojan batteries and a bigger inverter.
