Hey,
I've been reading the electrical forums and I want to know prior to buying my airstream what is the best overall setup? As far as house wiring goes I'm fairly capable of rewiring a house. RV wiring has me confused as to what is the best system.
Ideally I want a 50 amp service for AC units my concern is where and what type of converters/inverters should be put in. Is solar worth it over a generator? Is dual solar and a generator best? Should better batteries be installed like golf cart batteries with more amp hours? Where should surge protectors be? What is a transfer switch? When not hooked to shore power should a grounding rod of some kind be used with a generator? How much power do you really need?
I want to run a tv maybe for an hour or two a night. Charge electronics such as iPad and smart phone. Have some lights on. AC on when necessary. I don't use microwaves and I'm not going to be using a coffee pot. I also don't need everything to work if I'm boondocking I just want to make sure I get the best user friendly system that works in a variety of settings.
So much info to sort through with regard to wattage, voltage and amps. I'm also not real familiar with 12volt dc systems and what they are capable of running and how to tell whether an appliance or a tv can run off of it.
Thanks
