Review on πŸ”‹ Xantrex 817-2000 Freedom X Inverter: Powerful 2000W 120VAC Output, Reliable 12VDC Input Solution by Mark Clark

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reliable sine wave inverter

Powerful sine wave inverter. Installation is vital and is best performed by an experienced electrician with the correct gauge wire and electrical connections. I've had no problem running 4/0 copper wire between batteries or stranded 10 gauge THHN wire in liquid tight AC PVC conduit to use the built in automatic transfer relay. This inverter provides very clean AC power, much cleaner in frequency and voltage than my generator. The inverter offers reliable programming capability for virtually any application that is required of it. It starts and runs my 13,500 BTU Atwood air conditioner or my microwave in my RV. It puts out over 2000 watts but doesn't like to do so for too long as it goes into emergency mode and doesn't turn off immediately despite power surges when switched on. Dual fans are quiet. I am very impressed with the efficiency of this inverter, its sheer power and the transfer relay that allows it to operate completely unattended whether running on shore, battery or generator.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • The list will be long.
