Want to get a ~1500-2000 watt inverter to keep the wife happy during power outages. Probably won't use more than 1000 watts most of time to burn a few lights and run TV, router, laptop computer, etc. Have a backup generator to handle the bigger stuff but don't want to run it constantly.
Can I connect a 1500 watt inverter to my truck battery and just let the truck idle during the period I am using it? I think the alternator is rated at 160 amps.
