Will this support an Inverter connected to one of the 12V Sockets? I tried it once with a off the shelf brand and it melted in a couple days.

I ran a small 400 watt inverter off of this unit to operate a laptop computer up on the dash of my motorhome while underway. Worked fine but the key of course is having it on a properly fused 12 volt circuit matched to whatever device your trying to run. This unit has a 15 amp limit. Use it improperly and I'm sure it would burn up.

Depends on the amperage of the inverter and what you are trying to power up. Anything that is high draw should have a dedicated circuit right to the battery. I wouldn't even recommend a high amp or watt inverter be plugged in to the factory outlet let alone an add on.

I'm not familiar with the inverter you mentioned, but check that it is capable of 1800 watts at 120vac. If it can't support this amount of currernt, you run the risk of either a "brown-out" situation from the point of view of the cooktop or the inverter might either shut down or be destroyed.

I would go to blue sea's tech department and ask them. Since it is for a 48 volt inverter i would assume the amp draw won't be to high and it should be OK but if there was some kind of short it could quickly overload the system and cause a fire/damage best to check with the manufacture on this one

According to the specs, yes, it should. It might be my specific inverter, but I've had it shut down with just a 3/8ths-inch power drill. It doesn't pull any more than a couple hundred watts at start-up. This doesn't happen every time though. You might be fine, but a little more money for a larger one might save you some aggravation.

I would, 2000 watts @ 12 volts = 166.6 amps. The hot leg of any circuit (AC or DC) should always be protected with a fuse or circuit breaker. If you don't have a manual on your inverter search the internet to try to find its spec sheet to find out its max load in amps then size your fuse (or breaker) just slightly larger then it's max amp load

Please don't try using this inverter with a cigarette adapter as it's power level will probably exceed the amperage limit of the fuse for the cigarette lighter. You may even damage the wiring in your vehicle doing so.

I use a 12 v. DC power transformer. This works fine but you will need to solder the connections.

Gene,We have a couple of inverters that would work. Are you going to set your system up as a 12 volt or 24 volt system.Joe

inverters put out 120 VAC. I'm not sure what you are asking, it you are trying to power a 19 volt or a 24 volt device you don't need an inverter as it will be way over-voltaged. The inverter converts 12 VDC to 120 VAC.

It's set up for 110, so if you go through an inverter it should be fine. I personally wouldn't try anything else just for liability.

You might want to try very low gauge (means high capacity) wires from the battery to the inverter. I run a refrigerator off mine without any trouble.

It depends on your setup. The inverter has overcurrent protection of its own. You will need to size the fuse or breaker for the expected maximum load to be drawn through the wire and the wire size. The overcurrent device you install here is intended to protect the wire. For my setup, I used a #4 wire feeding a BESTEK 1000w/1200w 12v to 110v Inverter Power Supply MRI10011-1, so I installed a 100amp DC breaker/switch. For a fuse, I would install the same size for the same setup. I also have a breaker on the input to the charge regulator, but that's sized for the max current expected there and the wire size (20 amps and a #10 wire). As stated by some others here, it all depends on your setup. It depends on your setup. The inverter has overcurrent protection of its own.

I don't know if you can use this with an inverter. I do know that this has been removed from counter and is now sitting in the basement because it just didn't work well.

I think it would. It really depends on what kind of amperage your pump takes to run. This will determine if it can handle the load or not. Compare the two, if your pump is less than the inverter max load, I think you would be ok. I hope this helps you!

I think you mean to plug your inverter into one of these outlets. Same rules apply. Check that the inverter is not pulling more than the rating of this unit

You would have to get an inverter to have that work properly. It comes with an un-grounded, 2 prong plug that is meant for 120

I am not sure but you can try on thing I knoun there are batterie for this inverter
