generally, smaller coaches with ancillary inverters are for simply powering a few outlets, such as for a TV and a few outlets to power device chargers, or a cpap machine, etc.

On longer trips, a small fridge on an inverter is not a bad idea so as not to burn propane while driving. Not only does it a allow the propane to be shut off (which can be safer when driving) but there would not no drain on the house batteries with the alternator charing.

My schematics for the 2018 Outlaw 29H clearly show the fridge on the same circuit the inverter is supplying but it appears it has not been wired that way.

I know there have been few people on here installing a small inverter to power small fridge's on Class C's and I think it does make sense when driving longer distances.
