Inverter: modified or pure sine wave?

[Jman79]

I personally would look into the power station which is a convenient and flexible solution for most people. I actually have two of these. If your AC outlet needs are light they are excellent.

Recently I had to install an inverter for relatives to run an oxygen condenser on a long trip. For anyone who's needs to run something power hungry on long road trips the inverter still beats the power supplies/solar generators. My advice when installing is...
- use an online calculator to make sure your supply wires are proper size for inverter and distance from source power.
- Understand that AC travels distances better than DC. So a big inverter is better off placed somewhere in the front of the vehicle and rely on the devices power cord to take it to the back seat or even the bed if possible.

Regarding the Hybrid Mav's 110v outlet, the verdict has been, for me, well established : it is underwhelming.

I am currently toying with the idea of using a rechargeable power station (like one from Ecoflow) for my needs instead. Can any of you tell if I can use the 110v outlet as a trickle charger for the power station?

A Delta 2 trips out the inverter, even at a minimum allowed recharge of 200 watts.

I've only charged using the 12v. Get about 100w. When I expect to use a lot of the battery's capacity, I bring my solar panels.

In manual the fuze chart shows fuze 85 to be 60amp and is labeled "power inverter". So the wire to the inverter should be able to handle the load but the question would then what size wire would be in the harness to deliver the 400watt inverter output. Take care if replacing inverter!!!! Also wouldn't it be 3.33 amps at 120v and 33.3 amps at 12v???
