   The microwave won't run on battery, at least not without an inverter and not for very long. The television will run with an inverter.

	Hi-new owner of a 2016 182g. Will be primarily using it on the weekends (3 nights in a row maximum). We live in Jackson, WY so will be going mostly no more than 30 minutes from home. Still unclear as to the percentage of nights we will be dry camping as many of the campsites in Grand Teton National Park with electrical hookups fill up quickly and for long periods of time. In this climate air conditioning is not a big concern for us. My question is-based off of the above would you buy the Zamp solar panel (my Pod is pre-wired), a small generator or just wait a year and find out? Will everything (except A/C) run from solar? Thanks-everyone has been very helpful to this newbie.
