    I got a very big inverter Nav. 2000w PSW. I don’t have to worry about things that might not run- they all run. However, again, as long as you are aware of the battery state etc, you should have no problems. Wherever possible, I stay on 12v. Like the toothbrush- we had one that fitted a charger  that fitted the 12v cig lighter socket but was a 75w inverter . We now have a USB chargeable toothbrush which cuts out the inverter and charges with DC . Much better idea- less kit  to remember and less power used. All our techy stuff like our phones and tablets, Echo Dot which supplies all our music and the WiFi unit all charge with 12v DC.

    Just out of interest, does a 12volt tv contain an inverter in its circuitry?

    Thanks BB, then I guess a bog standard 240v tV could be easily converted to 12 volts by one with the knowledge and skills. Good ones are really cheap second hand.
