Hello! I’m looking to build a simple 12v system to run a 5000btu window unit in my foamie (r10 insulated ) truck camper.
A little background , I love to take my kids stealth camping places ..we sometimes bounce down the coast in FL or visit Colorado . We usually do 4-7 days with one night in a hotel in the middle to refresh (charge batteries)
So ill need enough charging or wh to have Air conditioning at night (8hrs but eco
Mode. It’s super insulated)) for preferably 3-4 nights or indefinate
Here’s what I’m thinking
-

Giandel
- for solar panels I’m looking for recommendations (they’ll be on top a smaller
Foamie) wanting stationary as we stealth camp a lot.so those fold outs are a no
Go
- can I use an inverter off the truck battery to charge while driving ?
I would love to have a system that charges when I drive , has solar (400W?), and a way to quick charge when shore power is available or on nights I get a hotel etc
Thank you for recommendations!

Maybe 2?-__________

3000 Watt Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter ETL UL458 listed 12 V to 110/120 Vac 4 Outlets plus a 40 Amps Hardwire Terminal
Then add a quick charger? What do you recommend?- for solar panels I’m looking for recommendations (they’ll be on top a smaller
