Just wondering how many are running an inverter [size] and powering what ??.
Trying to see if it would be advantageous having one, or make life easier at camp

I am thinking about getting a small one to charge camera batteries but that's the only reason I would have one. Everything I have is 12V

I've got one but never used it. I got it to charge stuff like camera batteries. I always charge them up prior to leaving I guess I just haven't done a long enough trip to use it
My power tools I have a 12v cigarette lighter charger for them. I try to stick to 12v chargers and stuff if possible

I've got one, 600W. Use it to charge camera batteries, my cordless drill batteries, camping lanterns, 12v air pump, not to mention just normal AAA's for torches etc. Also for the laptop/gopro.
And at night, hook it up to the electric blanket. Nothing like sleeping in the snow in your undies and being as warm as toast.

I am thinking of installing a 500 or so behind the seats for charging batteries and the laptop on extended trips. I like rustys idea of the microwave but that might be a bit much I think. Don't know hae much power a microwave needs.
2005 GU IV ST 3.0. Snorkel. Roof rack. Awning. Spots. Welded I/C. Dual batteries & VSR. UHF. Barn door hinge extension. Roof top spot lights. Rear drawers. 2" lift. NADS. EGT and boost gauges. Trans temp and water temp gauges. Provent 200 catch can. Rear ladder
And crawling on the planet's face, some insects called the human race. Lost in time. And lost in space... and meaning.
Minimum of 1000 watts with the engine going, depending on size
a few I know have a microwave in their tourer.
Way too much info on the undies bit LOL
