Good luck on your project. It’s good to keep in mind that all of devices you need to use have major efficiency losses, particularly the generator, charger, inverter and air conditioner. Each could easily be lower than 60% efficient, depending on the conditions of their use (warmup, percent of power capacity, etc. It would be wise to use a generator, charger, battery, and inverter that have double the expected power capacity in order to make up for efficiency losses. You should make sure that the batteries that you use can be charged in the amount of time that you plan.
Sure. But remember all I did was post your question to AI. Then I gave you the AI answer.
I would think something like a Bluetti 200L or Jackery 2000 Explorer could do the job. While the engine is running it can be recharging and it will have enough power to run a microwave or small AC unit.
