I am considering buying a 2019 srt with ekotrek. I like to boobdock alot, can anyone tell me how long your can run AC on full charge with ekotrek.
Im interested in how long ac can run without the engine starting? I know thisis dependent on size of battery but would like some general info.
 
The short answer is not very long. The a/c draws very heavy on the batteries. Ours was about 130 amps draw on the batteries. Your inverter must also be robust enough to support that load. We switched to a dc roof a/c that is much better. Only draws about 50a. Still a significant load, however. Ours is not an EcoTrek, but we are running a Lifep04 battery bank with 600 ah capacity. We can run for a few hours without having to recharge.
