Short answer. For an RV, buy a 2kWh portable power station with a built-in TT-30 (30-amp RV) outlet; under $900 that is the BLUETTI AC200L: 2,048 Wh LiFePO4, 2,400 W, 1,200 W of solar input ($899; buy: https://dealectric.com/go/bluetti-ac200l, code AFF5OFF saves $44.95). The RV plug gets about 20 A, not 30 A: the 2,400 W inverter runs the RV fridge, water pump, lights and a coffee maker, not the full 30 A service or the rooftop AC. Plugged in, the RV's converter charges its house battery from the power station (up to about 800 W), so switch the converter off once that battery is full, and set a two-way fridge to propane: on AUTO it uses 2.4–3.6 kWh a day, more than the whole 2kWh pack.
The AC200L is late in its life (BLUETTI Canada lists it as discontinued) but was in stock on bluettipower.com on 2026-10-31. The other RV power stations with a TT-30 under $900 are Anker's SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 ($899.99, the lightest at 41.7 lb) and the Renogy PowerStation 2000 ($849).

Rows marked with a code and buy link are products Dealectric lists: the price was verified on the brand's own US store on 2026-10-27 and the code is tested daily in that brand's cart; the date shown is its last pass (last check 2026-10-31). The other rows (Anker SOLIX, Jackery, Renogy) are included so the comparison is complete; their figures and prices were read from the makers' own US pages on 2026-10-31 and are not re-checked daily. The buy links are affiliate links: they open the brand's official US store at no cost to the shopper, and the commission pays for the testing; see the disclosure.
How long a 2kWh power station lasts in an RV
A 12 V compressor fridge uses about 0.7 kWh a day, a furnace blower 0.3–0.5 kWh on a cold night, and lights, phones and the water pump about 0.2 kWh: roughly 1.2–1.5 kWh a day. That is about a day and a half with no sun, and two to three days with 200–400 W of solar. A 13,500 BTU rooftop AC needs 2,800–3,500 W to start (about 2,000 W with a soft starter) and runs 1,300–1,900 W, so a 2kWh station runs it for about an hour.
Recharging on the road
- Campground or home outlet: about 1–1.5 hours on a 15/20 A outlet.
- Driving: a DC-DC alternator charger adds 560–800 W; the 12 V socket gives about 100 W, a full day for a full charge.
- Solar: a 400 W panel returns about 1–1.5 kWh on a good day. The AC200L and Renogy take 1,200 W, the Elite 200 V2 1,000 W, Anker 800 W, Jackery 400 W.
The Elite 200 V2 is lighter and rated for twice the cycles of the AC200L, but has no RV outlet: it needs a 5-20P to TT-30R adapter and is then limited to that outlet's 20 A. Jackery's Explorer 2000 v2 is a popular pick but was $999 on Jackery's store on 2026-10-31 and has no RV outlet.
