My 2000 watt Jackery will handle a 3000 watt draw. Starting with a full charge and 400 watts of solar panels in good sun I can run a 15k air conditioner for about an hour and a half. Practical? Not really.

From what you’re describing I start at the scales. With a 2500 it won’t take much to runout of payload.

I use RV LIFE Maintenance. It’s included with my RV LIFE membership. It’s web based and user configurable. You can even upload recipes.

The entry fee is applied to your down payment if you buy a RV.

If you are connected to shore power your converter will supply 12v for the lights. Because the converter will be supplying 12v be sure to protect the disconnected positive battery cable.

3 main options are to use only your existing converter (so long as it won’t exceed 14.6 volts during bulk charge) and live with the reduced capacity. Second choice is to replace the converter with something better suited for LiFePo. Third is to supplement your existing converter with an...

If you’re willing to run the generator the entire time why not simplify things and get a direc plug in 110 volt pump.

It’s cute. I could carry 2 and a half of them in the bed of my tow vehicle. Lol

Another vote for hardwired ems. No worries of it getting stolen or more likely left behind.

Goodness some of you are awfully touchy about your antique tools. In all honesty I use a 1/2” 250 ftlb Husky micrometer type the most. The digital one takes 3 AA batteries that last about a year with near daily use.

Come on people it’s 2023. All you have to do is press the units button on the digital torque wrench until it reads NM. What’s next tips on using a protractor for torque angle? I bought a digital 0-100 ftlb wrench back in 2008 that does inlb, ftlb, NM and torque angle.
