from wathom:
I would not exceed 15 amps draw so no air micro wave or any combinations that have a heavy draw beside you circuit breaker should trip but who knows.
While the circuit breaker is certainly there to protect the HOUSE wiring - it does little to protect what you are plugging in...
In this mode - appliances like the microwave are likely not going to get the power (volts/amps) they want - depending on the cords/adapters use - and could be damaged - similar to the effects of a 'brownout' on home appliances.
One reason I still run through my Surgegard in this config - it will detect the low voltage and cut off the RV. Need to be conscious/careful about what you turn on when connected to a limited supply source.
