After failing to get my ecoflow delta pros to charge at full speed I am planning to buy an all in one inverter with a small battery to power an air conditioner that uses about 1300 watts maximum. I'm hoping the folks here can tell me if I'm about to make a mistake.

I'm looking at either an Eco-worthy all-in-one 3000W 24V all-in-one Inverter with 60A MPPT or a PowMr 3000W 24V all in one Inverters with an 80A MPPT. Each are just under $500

I'm planning to use it just to power the air conditioner, and charge my ecoflow with the extra juice, so I am thinking a small 50Ah 24v battery like this one on amazon for $250 would suffice. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CJM3RTX4/

The other cheap 24V battery choice I found is an Ecoworthy 100AH battery for $400 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09W23ZGXV?th=1 Would I get some advantages by pairing the EcoWorthy inverter with an EcoWorthy battery?

I already have enough solar panels and can meet the minimum voltage requirements.

Will this work? Do I need a DC fuse or breaker or anything between my panels and the all-in-one?
 
You might pull it off if only running the A/C between 10am and 4 pm. Assuming you have about 1800 watts of panels in direct sunlight the whole time. Good luck when the clouds pass over. All bets are off then.
 
Thanks I'm planning to use close to 3000 watts of panels, to run the A/C and at the same time charge my ecoflows for the night time. I've just never done anything like this before so I hope I am not overlooking something.
