Bay window concerns / electrical power for roadtrip
« on: May 18, 2008, 10:03:16 AM »
I'm getting myself set up for a long road trip in my 77 westy. I want to upgrade my electricals so the bus is more liveable longterm. I want to occasionally be able to run a computer, small tv or dvd, and possibly a low wattage microwave, etc. Looking for advice

I'm thinking of a couple of options

1. installing a 2nd battery inside and hooking it up to the alternator. Then installing a 1500 watt inverter

2. installing an inverter on to my main battery (doesn't  this run the risk of not being able to start the bus ?)

3. Getting a Duracell powerpack with 600 watt inverter and plugging it into every Denny's and Starbucks I stop at on the way ?

Thoughts ? suggestions ? experiences
