Imo, it almost never is a good idea to heat stuff with battery power in a vanagon.

I have yesterday bought a xantrex 1000w inverter at costco for $39.
this model is ideal in a vanagon imho, to run your espresso machine and
microwave.

i had bought the same exact model used on ebay for the same money, and it
turned out to be broken.
this is a great price. lowest internet price i can find is $75.
