My set-up: I got a deep cycle battery and put it under the dining seat. The inverter is under the dining table, which is where I would make coffee or do anything else. To keep the battery charged, I added a 6 amp charger that works whenever we have shore power.

It works fine, but yes, it is a lot of trouble just to make coffee. In reality, however, it is a backup system if I ever need one.

I think its a great Idea if you ahave the room to spare. Some days you really need a stong cup of joe so its well worth it in the long run (IMO).
