batteries in place of generator

[Dorn Hetzel]

The gas generator on my 77FC35 isn't in the best shape. (hosed up flywheel,
takes many tries to find enough teeth to make it start, then doesn't run for
more than 5 minutes without starving for fuel... (or so it seems))

I'm considering just pulling it out and filling the hole where it used to be
with a big pile of batteries and a big inverter/charger.

My thought is that the generators weight in batteries would be a lot of Amp
Hours.

I would also probably put in the biggest alternator I could get my hands on
for best charging and most useable power whilst on the road.

I realize this arrangement probably won't run the much air conditioning, or
for long, but I don't have any immediate plans to boondock with the air
running

Any thoughts? Anyone tried this with success or failure?
