Long story short.

I did exactly that -- split a window ac and powered it with a 4024 inverter. I had 6 8D absorbed glass mat batteries. The math said I could run it all night and charge the batteries driving during the day. About 2-4 hours in I had to get up and fire up the generator. The math works on the paper but not in real life. I did however learn a great deal of what is necessary to be comforable when traveling.

I hope this helps.
