How Much Power Draw Typically for 13.5 BTU AC Unit on RV  

Question:

Hello, I have a 2020 Jayco 27bhb which is pre-wired for Solar. If I purchase the solar elite can I ran a 13,500 btu AC only with 2 regular 12 volts battery or if I purchase 2 6V lithium batteies, will I be able to run only my AC during a sunny day? If not, please let me know what additional items I would need to purchase to run this 13.5K BTU AC. Thanks,

A 13,500 btu air conditioner normally draws right at 1,300 watts which the solar panel kit part # 34282184 can only provide up to 380 watts at peak performance. The highest wattage setup we have from solar panels is the # 34282185 which is capable of 570 watts.

Realistically if you are planning on using an AC unit you'll need to use a generator to power it like with # 333-0002.
