Jamie is right, the more you can switch to 12v the less amperage you will use because it is more efficient than using an inverter. However, make sure that you are taking the amperage from your house batteries and not your chassis battery. I jump started an RV 35 miles into Denali NP in Alaska because he had run his chassis battery down running his 12v TV for a week. If you do that and dump the Keurig, you can also go to a much smaller inverter that you can easily install yourself. I have one the sits on top of the doghouse and is hooked directly to the house batteries. I use it to run two 110v fans above the driver and passenger going down the road, and to charge my laptop and run small appliances when I am camping.
