My charger is mounted inside the engine compartment .. would that be a suitable 
location for an inverter?
I like that rotary switch.

Usually it's a remote panel for the inverter.  It's an option on the cheaper 
units, standard on the higher end models.

All,

I've always wanted to have a setup like this, but, as part of it, put the 
inverter in a locker or behind the instrument panel so the wires and the big 
metal box are hidden. Does anyone have something like this set up? And, if so, 
how do you power on the inverter?

Or do you have the inverter out and have a cord plugged into one of the outlets 
that runs back inside to your shore/gen switch?

All the best,

Edd

Edd,

Blue Seas makes a couple of different ways to switch between an Inverter and 
Shore Power.  Either solution could be mounted next to the AC Panel beside the 
Chart Table on the Enterprise.

Here are links to the switches (two ways of doing this):

http://www.bluesea.com/products/8367/AC_Rotary_Switch_Panel_30_Ampere_2_positions_%2B_OFF_2_Pole

or

http://www.bluesea.com/products/8032/Traditional_Metal_Panel_-_120V_AC_30A_Toggle_Source_Selector

The Rotary Switch is a little cheaper than the Breaker solution and you don't 
need the breakers as you have a main breaker in the AC panel right next to the 
suggested switch location.

To wire this up, the existing wire from the existing shore power inlet (which 
goes directly to your existing AC Panel) would now go directly to one side of 
the Rotary Switch and a new, short wire would jump from the Rotary Switch to 
the existing AC panel.  A new wire from the inverter would go to the other side 
of the Rotary Switch.  Simple.

Dennis,

Interesting. Where do you have your shore/gen switch and how is everything 
wired up?


All the best,

Ray,

It's a small 120 Volt AC travel dryer.  It works OK for the admiral.

When on the hook all my 120 v receptacles are powered by the 1000 watt inverter 
through a "shore/gen" switch.   She can plug it in to any of 5 receptacles 
throughout the boat.

Dennis,
Now take that new hair dryer and connect it to your car battery to see how it 
works. My situation is
somewhat different but we had a 12 v coffee maker. 45 minutes to make coffee. 
We now use a Sea Cook propane stove in the cockpit, 10 minutes to perc a pot 
and better coffee..
