I have a 1998 Ford Class A. The generator is in the front compartment on the drivers side by the axle. It's a pass thru comartment and you can see the ground and engine of the RV in this compartment. The passenger side of it has a floor. I have plans for going to a mini split DC 48v system. My thoughts are to remove the generator and put the compressor there instead. Lithium batteries dedicated to the mini split would be on the other side of the compartment and solar on the roof. I am a little concerned about excess engine heat or fumes and if that would affect this set up? Also, I wouldnt miss the microwave and would pull that out but I do want 120 outlets when boondocking for using low draw stuff. I would use the 2 regular house batteries I already have for running this but do I need an inverter or something to make that work? I would probably have a dedicated solar panel for charging those 2 batteries
