Wondering if two group 31 AGM batteries would get us through the night if we didn't use heat, coffee maker and hair dryer.

Thanks all!
I metered mine with a KillAWatt meter and it uses 1.5kWh per day. Just doing a simple conversion (no inverter losses) then 1500/12 is 125AH. That is for 24 hrs so assume maybe 40AH for overnight. Your AGM's should be ok as long as they were fully charged at your last campground.
