The only time it is needed is if "dry" camping, i.e. not connected to shore power nor using the generator. I use it to charge phones, etc. while underway, and also when camped at national parks...

Only thing inverter provides electricity to on our 29D is the TV and surround sound up front. I added a receptacle hooked into the inverter in the side of the bed for my CPAP.

Storage is definitely limited in our 29D, but weight limitations are much more of a factor. On a trip to Alaska last summer, we barely made it under the gross weight limitations.
