While my question isnt actually about a van RV conversion maybe some of you might be able to help guide me. I am building out a van for my sons mobile knife sharpening business. It will be powered by a 12 volt system that is converted to 110 for most of his power tools. It will be in constant use. We are thinking a 3000W inverter is the size he needs.
Thought is to use two 6 volt golf cart batteries LithIIm would be great but the price is out of his league right now. They also suffer in cold weather and he will be operating in winter months. Any input? I have heard that venting is an issue in an enclosed area but AGM batteries suffer in the recharge times as well their not to far out of his cost range.
Charging and inverting brands and how tos. One concern with an all in one is there larger than using two separate units. It looks like I could fit a charger and and inverter under the passenger seat but a 3000W charger inverter are to tall to do so. This isnt a breaking point if there was a combination unit that was superior we will find a spot for it.
This will see continuous use and often the batteries will be drained to a very low level. I know this affects lifespan but thats just part of the gig.
Thanks in advance.
