All of your interior lights should be 12v... the furnace is 12v (+ propane)... so only the TV will be running on the inverter (the default is 110v for TVs - I installed a 12v TV and Blu Ray for dry camping/boondocking..)

With that load should be no issue... (assume RV fridge that will be 12v controls and propane for cooling too).

Minus the inverter for TV - I can easily do a 3-4 day weekend on batteries - only starting the genny briefly if microwave or coffee maker is needed.
