Dry camping battery questions????
This post is the tail end of another post I made. I am reposting it as a separate topic as I think it will get lost in the other topic.
The only way I can get my wife to agree to dry camp is if I can provide TV for the duration. We will dry camp only for a day or two at a time and be at a full hookup campground the rest of the time. I have a small Panasonic TV in the bedroom and it draws about 60 watts at 120v. I know that there is a 12 volt outlet behind the TV. I assume that if I buy a 300 watt inverter and leave it plugged in behind the TV I can run it like that. My questions are these: Any idea how many hours you can typically get from a battery in good condition? I know that 'typically' is anything but typical but I would like your experience. Should I buy a second battery as a safety measure?
If I do should I keep it separate and swap it in or should I hook it up in parallel? Where can I get battery switches and quick connectors if I do?
Thanks
