Dianne and Scott, I think your application is a great example of the practicality, versatility and cost-effectiveness of these power stations, particularly when outfitting a camper from scratch, especially here in the East where RV PV systems don’t appear to be as popular as in the West. You have 160 Ah of LFP batteries (12.8 V x 160 Ah = 2048 Whr.), a versatile DC charger, including MPPT; a high-power AC charger, a 2400 W true sine wave AC inverter, and a very useful range of AC, DC and USB...
