Another Inverter Question (or two)

I'd like to add an inverter to the Chateau just to run the TV, the occasional blender and ideally, a small heater.
My plan would be to wire it directly to the two house batteries under the stairs and then secure the inverter in the space behind the chair next to the entry door.
I'm not interested in connecting to the existing electric system as that greatly complicates things - for me. I'll just use an extension cord for now.


1. Any comments as to brands and sizes to consider or stay away from?
I am looking at this one: https://www.ampeak.com/ivufa2000.



and
2. How long would this inverter run a 1500 watt space heater before running down the batteries? Batteries are new this year and let's assume that they are fully charged to start.
Thank you.
James
