Running off Batteries

If running off battery is there an outlet(s) in a 2018 Rockwood 2507S which can be used?

Thank you!

i'm assuming you mean a 120 vac outlet. do you have an inverter? if not, the answer is no. if you do, it is probably dedicated to a residential refrigerator with only one receptacle that the refrigerator is plugged into. you could conceivable add another receptacle to the refrigerator circuit but be mindful of what you plug in and the amount if load it would add to the existing refrigerator load. some inverters have a dual receptacle on the front of them that could conceivably be used.

The only outlet that will run on the battery, is the round 12v cigarette lighter-type outlet.
The household 110v outlets will only run on shore power or generator power.
It would take a big install and a bank of batteries to power the outlets.
Or you can get a small inverter and use the 12v round outlet to power small things.
None of the Mini-Lites come with inverters nor residential fridges.

Thank to everyone for your knowledge. I do have an inverter that will plug into the 12 volt outlet.

I will be buying a generator sooner than later, which is another topic.

Thanks again!

Inverter

Consider an inverter direct to battery, the 12vdc outlet is limited to approx. 180watts @ 120ac
