Only when the sun is high..I can run my little AC off solar panels and battery. But...when the sun is low, I have to stop that.
Nothing will run 110 AC longer term, except a generator or plugging in.
Sternwake can give you the math...but, as a quick rule of thumb...110 volts converting to 12v...just shift the decimal over one place.
SO...If it take 15 Amps at 110. It will take 150 amps at 12.
Rough first approximation. But, the number is too high to ever get more than an hour or so without a generator or plugging in
