Separate House and Inverter Battery Banks?

Question:

Jeff,  I really enjoy watching your videos. Have a Duckworth 30xl on order and I was planning on installing a inverter and thinking about the Magnum MS2012 2000W true sine inverter. I was planning on adding a 4 circuit inverter load panel and re routing the convenience outlet circuit to it as it is currently in the shore power panel.  Should the inverter battery bank be connected to the “house “ battery?  - Terry

Answer:

Hi Terry, to make battery charging, management, and monitoring easier, I recommend you have only one battery bank for all house loads, which includes the inverter loads as well.  - Jeff
