Joe, just out of curiosity, is the big inverter pure sine wave, or both or neither?Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone -------- Original message --------From: "Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List" <[email protected]> Date: 9/24/19 7:51 PM (GMT-05:00) To: [email protected] Cc: "Della Barba, Joe" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Stus-List Solar panels - now charger/inverters
The big charger-inverters are complicated beasts. I sold and installed a lot of them back in the day. I have a ProNautic 15 amp charger, a separate 300 watt inverter, and a separate 1200 watt inverter. Either one can drive the cabin outlets depending on a switch. The 300 watt unit is silent and draws very little in standby. It gets used most of the time, but if I need a big tool or the hairdryer we fire up the 1200 watt inverter. It has a fan you can hear, so we don’t use it when we don’t need to. All 3 together are less than a big inverter/charger.

I have a 2.5k inverter/charger I would love to get rid of. It's big and I don't like the way it's wired into my boat. I had a fault while out cruising earlier this month, that rendered the whole unit us less. Except for ballast. Luckily I was able to reset the fault.

I personally don't like them. Others may disagree. If either side dies, you're screwed. I prefer to install a separate charger and a separate inverter. Dennis C.
