Is it possible to install an electric converter in my trailer so I will be able to run a 110 v fan in the stall area while I'm driving? I have a three horse LQ and of course it will only run 12v unless it is plugged into shore power or a gen. How do other people do this? Thanks very much.Sweep

To run a 110V appliance powered by your truck, you will need an INVERTER. It will change your 12v DC to 110V ac. Most people just install 12 v fans which greatly simplifies their electrical needs.
