So, I have been considering a small inverter to power a small TV while boondocking. My small Class C has a 110v circuit that is dedicated for the outlets under the overhead compartments. In an effort to keep the DC wires short, I think I'll put the inverter near the converter/charger/fuse panel. I assume that the 110v circuits currently are fed directly from the output of the transfer switch. I suppose I could permanently rewire the circuit for the overhead outlets directly to the output of the inverter. Is there any drawbacks to this plan (besides the obvious overloading the inverter)? I was thinking that it might be advantageous to put in a contactor or relay that would automatically bypass the inverter when it sensed current from the transfer switch. When 110v power is not available, the relay would switch to power that circuit off the inverter. To me, this sounds like the best of both worlds.
Am I crazy? ;D Ok, I know I am... but does this sound like it's worth the trouble?
