You need a portable generator to power all else . Lots available— Honda was the
Big Dog at one time —- but pricey —- if you boondock a lot get a real good one
—- if it’s just for power outages I used a Champion .

Mine powers more than the fridge. See previous post.
I have a 2020 Arctic Wolf 285DRL4. The inverter provides power to the refrig, the motor to raise/lower the bed, the two recliners and to the wall socket next to the range. I have a voltage monitor plugged into the socket so that I can check the voltage when I turn the inverter on before hitting the road. The circuit is labeled GEN on the breaker box.
That is PRECISELY the information I was looking for. Thanks for responding. Mine is the same but I would not have stumbled upon that for some time. I didn’t even know I had an outlet by the range. It is actually hidden under the cabinet behind the paper towels. And until you mentioned it, I didn’t realize the massager in the recliners were energized. Now I know. Now I also know those recliners are a definite parasite drain on the inverter. I’ve got a battery monitor on the way. I’ll quantify it when I get the chance. That plug is very inaccessible.

You will never power an AC unit from batteries/inverter only... at least not in an RV
It can be done with a larger solar system, soft start on AC, four 100 AH lithium batteries, inverter converter and a wallet that might have been fat to begin with but is now skinny.
