Thought I would toss this idea out there for some feedback. While we are looking at this for a Class B motorhome it could apply to our Rosborough quite well, if I can find a marine version (have sent inquiries to Dometic & Coleman). Found this truck option https://www.guchen.com/electrical-truck-air-conditioner/dc-powered-ac.html.
The idea started with the Class B motorhome which has dual batteries similar to our Rosborough. We travel with a dog so a 12 volt system would address (probably 3 hours max) times we may be at a restaurant, shopping, dock without shore power, at anchor, etc. If unable to find a viable 12 volt system then would likely look at an inverter system to power a small 110 volt rooftop unit. Not really interested in a generator due to the small footprint. A 12v/110v unit would be great but have not found such.
Hope I provided enough information to explain my idea for the motorhome that could also apply to the boat. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
