Marco is right. These soft start units make a high difference in trying to run an ac off of lithium batteries. While it is a practical no go with any lead avid battery it can be done with lithium batteries. More after the presentation at GMCWS.

Variable frequency devices out of industrial control systems make it not only possible but practicable for short (one to two hour) periods as well. Melt your wallet and several hours are possible. A long day of dry camping? Not yet and not likely any time soon. We have to wait for solid electrolyte lithium batteries for that. Don’t hold your breath. We might see that about twice the time all these recent FMCA renewals expire.

I haven't tried these, and they're not cheap, but the Micro-Air Easy Start soft starter seems like a possible solution..
