We do Christmas ships every year and usually go out about 5 nights per season. I have a cheapish 500 watt (peak) Stanley inverter wired directly to one of my house battery's with a flat wire plug and about a 18" lead with an inline fuse of course. We run all LEDs.

I'd have to look but I think it's something like a 100 amp fuse. I think the wires are something like 2 or 4 AWG. I know the cables are substantial and I had to locate the inverter for minimum wire run, like under 10 feet total. I did the calculations using the Blue Sea app. DIY's are usually su
