These are the solar panels, they'll be in tomorrow. I have room for two.

I'm not sure if I screwed up or not, I bought an Aims Pure sine wave 1250 watt , this model;
https://theinverterstore.com/product/1200-watt-pure-sine-inverter-with-transfer-switch-12-vdc-to-120-vac-10ft-cord-copy/

It does not have outlets, it feeds the trailers outlets when not hooked up to electrical.. Do you think I screwed up? Actually too late to ask but buyers remorse is a terrible thing.

Rob, Gotsmart's said he'd look in a bit. It's his turn to drive and we are on the redwoods about an hour from our final destination - freaking finally. I need rest

Travel safe... I sort of figured out how the thing works, it may take a bit more involved wiring than a regular inverter but it's only money, right?

Yeah, but he can save you bunches by making the wire hook ups himself.

I hope so. I looked up the connections on the solar panels, they are fairly common. The specialized crimper is a steal at 150 bucks though.

Rob I am sure he has one of the pro version crimpers you can steal for an afternoon. If not I have seen lots of cheap "good for one job" crimpers online. The wire yourself rather than plug into socket is better as they don't pop out it is the same as mine in that regard.

Gunny , that inverter is fine . Will supply ~10 amps
If you put it next to the breaker box you can just pull a outlet feed wire off a breaker and hook it to the inverter
OR it can feed it's own special outlet installed anywhere to just be used when you're off grid...

I'd lean towards the second choice.
(and I (or someone else with the clue) can walk you through electrical outlet source and installation from here ,,,,
OH Ayuh !)
