My Pioneer 120V 9k btu mini splits have a max current on a/c of 750W. The inverter will handle it fine, but has a "floating neutral" that is (an unlikely) hazard. Google that to learn more and decide.

If you install a 120V mini-split or similar, the Tripac should start up when needed to keep the batteries charged. Of course if you set it on a/c it will be running all the time anyway. Although you may want to look into an alternator upgrade for it. The originals are only 37A if memory serves.

My pioneer was great until it leaked out all the freon after a month....

Lithium batteries have a BMS. Short them all you want. The BMS will shut off the output above 200 amps instantly.

This is why i said secured, im not worried about a wrench falling on the terminals, im worried about an unsecured battery impaling itself on something and that bypasses the bms

That's easy. Strap em down properly. Mine are boxed in with carpeted 2x2's and strapped under my bunk.
