darren. Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 My outlets are confusing me If I am plugged in, they all work fine but if I'm not plugged in, they don't work. If I am not actually plugged in, should my outlets still work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 110 outlets need you to be plugged in unless you have a generator and it's on. 12 volt cigarette type outlets will work off the battery. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Yes, that or a built-in inverter. We plug our RV lead cord into the inverter when parked away from "shore power." This way all the AC outlets work via the batteries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maineah Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 The inverter trick will work but you'll need a way to turn off the converter charger unless I missed some thing in physics class! My Toy home converter was wired directly to the power cord so I had to add a breaker my tow behind was the same way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I have to do is unplug it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
