297rsts inverter choice
i'm in the process of acquiring a new 297rsts. because the fridge is totally blocked with the slides in, i'd like to invert power to the outdoor fridge. while i'm at it, i'd like to do the same with my tv's.
can anyone tell me what the degree of difficulty of this install and what size/brand of inverter you think might suit this purpose.
thanks in advance.2020 Reflection 297RSTS. Equalizer 1600 hitch. 2020 Chevrolet 2500 diesel short bed. Charley and Janis. Pets Zoie and Harley.

Hi Charley. I did the exact same thing that you want to do. I bought a Bestek 1000 watt inverter. Here is the link:
https://www.amazon.ca/BESTEK-1000W-P.../dp/B007SLDDHQ
I also bought this automatic transfer switch:

The TVs, outdoor fridge and indoor fridge on mine where all on the same breaker so when we travel I switch the indoor fridge to propane so that I don't use too much battery power. It took me most of the afternoon to install all of this under the hutch and it is a tight fit so took some shuffling of bits including the junction box for the connections to get it all to fit. I leave the inverter turned on all of the time and the transfer switch automatically switches between shore power and inverter when there is no shore power.
