We live and work full-time out of a camper van which is somewhat limiting on power. We have 2 100WH AGM batteries and a 1000w inverter plus 200W of solar panels on the roof. With my 2014 15" MPB, I'd have to constantly be connected to the vans AC inverter since I only get about 2.5 hrs of battery life out of it. With the M1 going all day, and only having 1/2 the battery size of the 15, I'm using a fraction of the power from our van batteries. We were looking to upgrade our van to hold more batteries and solar, but now that we work on the M1, I don't think we will need to.. It's amazing.
