so based on that chart if I have a 3000 watt inverter and went on a 3 day trip making say 6 pots of coffee and have 2 12 volt deep cell marine batteries I should be good to not run out of power right?

I plan on buying a 3000 watt inverter generator for next year (2016) as we will be doing 1-2 week long dry camping trips. that way I can charge up my batteries during the waking hours in the day
