Great! Hope it all works well for you!
I have a couple of 12v / 2.4A gate motor batteries that I use just for LED's when camping. Had 6 led lamp units going, connected my 800W inverter to the deep-cycle in the bakkie and ran an extension cable into the house to power the TV, PC and router ..... the load shedding was no real inconvenience for us.

When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
