I agree with Jerry; I quit trying to be an appliance salesman in the
90s. Just go Energy star and add more panels and batteries. The damn
inverters no load draw is actually one of the bigger problems; a pair of
Outbacks is about equal to a full size fridge.

I have supplied power systems for 300 sF to 5000sF homes and it does
not ever seam to pencil out using these small but bulky appliances, we
always end up at Sears or some large retailer that has high end energy
star products from refriges to induction ranges to super quiet dish
washers. you can add a few panels for all the saving of the products
you buy and there are service techs that not only can but are willing
to fix things when they need service. spend the cash on better
batteries, US made modules and appliances.
foot note: I have a customer that paid less for two stainless friges
then his last propane in the ass frig cost him, and they dont use much
power and are 24 QF each. Going off grid does not need to be a step
back but rather a leap forward

I'm looking for a recommendation for an efficient dishwasher to be
powered by an OutBack inverter.
Also, I need to buy another LP gas range for off-grid use. I have
been using the Peerless-Premier line because they could be ordered
without the electric glow bar in the oven. Are they any more
choices these days in LP ranges?
Thanks,
Dave
