Another caffeine addict/coffee snob here who uses a french press on the boat. (I dropped and broke the one from home during a boat delivery this spring.) I also have a high quality hand grinder from Japan on the boat, so no electricity required. (I do have a Krupps grinder plugged in here at home.) I got the impression when shopping for the coffee grinder that the Japanese seem to be a nation of coffee snobs.

I believe this, My Microwave went this summer with a big bang. I can't remember if it was at the dock or on the Inverter, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if shitty AC could have degraded it. It was a pretty nice one too. My next Inverter/Charger will be true Sine Wave.

Stus-List Re: Jackery solar system
Thanks Neil and Joe. Much to consider. I like the invertor with auto switch built in. You are right Joe. I setup my boat as a man-cave at the dock, and racer away from the dock. I installed a 120V system with breaker panel and all circuits on Shorepower only. I figured I didn't want to add enough batteries to power the AC, so kept it shorepower only. The loads are 16000 Btu AC, Battery charger, and two receptacle circuits with TV, refrigerator, laptops, and boom box and cell charging stations. During the hot Chesapeake summer, It is very comfortable at the dock or in a marina slip. I usually drive down, start the AC, go out for dinner and the cabin is cooled down enough to get a good night's sleep. I have two) ten year old 100Ah AGMS. They will need to be replaced soon. I think September and October are the best sailing months as the days aren't so hot and the nights aren't too cool. We recently anchored out a few nights, enjoying the cooler weather and I worried about battery management and restarting the engine the next day. I do have a jump start on board as a backup, but haven't tried it. I'd like to add solar as another power source and the Jackery is plug and play and includes a 2000 Ah battery, and two briefcase style solar panels and is portable so can be used at home also. Thanks for the inverter suggestion. I'll have to look at the ventilation requirements.

Stus-List Re: Jackery solar system
The one I linked to is pure sine wave. The one I have is not pure sine, they were quite expensive back then. Even odder is it shows 60 volts hot to ground and 60 volts neutral to ground. It has never caused an issue but for one thing - one computer power supply I have won't work with it. The GFIs still work as designed. One day I'll swap to pure sign just for the RFI reduction, the more normal grounding will be a bonus. Also note you aren't talking on the SSB with a square-wave inverter running!

Stus-List Re: Jackery solar system
Can we back up a bit? Do you right now have a TV that you can only use on shore power? Maybe all you need is an inverter, they don’t cost too much. I have had a 300 watt inverter for ages and added a 1,000 watt inverter for bigger tools and the admiral’s hair dryer. The smaller one is better for charging computers, the coffee grinder, and so on. It draws about half what the big one draws at standby and is silent, the bigger one has a fan. I use this transfer switch: https://www.westmarine.com/kisae-technology-ac-transfer-switch-20a-14159982.html This is the closest equivalent to the inverter I have, mine is no longer sold. https://www.westmarine.com/kisae-technology-true-1000-pure-sine-wave-inverter-14159933.html --- >Shore Power >AC panel> 15 amp breaker>auto transfer switch>outlets. I have to physically plug and unplug to swap inverters plus the 300 watt unit has a dedicated outlet at the chart table.

I have a Vintage Melitta percolator. Uses 900watts. Just under my 1000 watt inverter rating. I have resuscitated it several times. I like it because the pot lifts off the base. Easy to carry it out of the galley to pour. Elite Gourmet makes a similar lift off pot coffee maker that's rated at 800 watts. -- Dennis C.

Watt-hours is amp-hours X volts. My house battery is 180 amp hours and 12 volts, so it is 2,160 watt-hours. Practically using more than about 1100 of that at once is very hard on the battery. A lithium battery can do 80% cycles no problem, so that would give you an effective 1700 or so watt-hours from the same size battery.

We still enjoy TV at the dock and it's built in DVD player allows us to borrow movies from the library or rewatch old favorites like Hornblower, Wackiest Ship in the Army, Houseboat, Two For the Road, Wind, etc. The attraction of the Jackery is portability and it plugs right into my shore power inlet so all the 120v outlets can be powered. It's easily removed from the boat and could backup my house during hurricane season, or taken camping. If you price out a 2000 watt invertor and batteries for it and 400 watt solar panels and a battery monitoring system, I would think it would get more expensive and more labor intensive, wiring all that together. I would prefer a stand alone system that can be used when needed, and not something permanently mounted. $1700 may seem like a lot of money, but the system would allow me to run a microwave or a hair dryer and provides another way to charge batteries when on the hook. It would be removed from the boat for racing, removing all that weight. I haven't bought one yet. I'm still considering options.

The value proposition changes a bit if you use it for other things like power outages, camping, other boats, and so on. If you have multiple uses for it, it starts making more sense.
