Are you sure about that battery it weighs 42kg! I don't think I could even lift it.
Do you really need an inverter for your set up, the items you mention will all run of 12v, I have an inverter on my battery box, but only because I occasionally use a 500watt kettle, and can’t get to use my MSR Pocket Rocket gas burner.
For running the laptop etc I use a 12v step up unit, which works great and can be set for various output voltage’s and came with around 8 different laptop connectors.
For charging the battery on the move you will need a split charge system or DC to DC battery charger.
Would love a split charge system on the car that I drive, but I am in a firms car currently and they keep changing it every four months, so that rules that out at the moment.
As for the shower, the Kampa Geyser looks to be a good bit of kit, also the Aqua Cube by Companion and the Ridge Ryder Insta shower, although those last two are not available in Europe, great if you are going of grid.
