You should be fine on battery for that length of time so long as you dont cane the power. Inverters will give 240 if needed but pretty much everything else can be run off gas.

We run fine for long weekends on 12v only. We have FreeSat which runs on 12v and an Avtex telly which also runs on 12v. Fridge on gas. Cooker on gas and heating on gas. Job done.

Spend the money on a decent battery (135A) a 12v tv and 12v sat tuner. and enjoy the silence... the generator will be anoying to you and everyone around you. |

I have a Kipor generator - 2Kva jobby that can run an arc welder but it is very quiet. As quiet as the Honda suitcase type but cheaper. "On first name terms with my local Dealer......now."

Just doing the numbers, if I bought a better battery, a 12v tv & satellite box and even before a solar panel is taken into account it's cheaper to get a 2nd hand kipor 2kw generator. |
