AC Inverter/Charger/Automatic Transmission Rock Solid GOLDEN

PROS: This inverter is amazing. I run my whole little house with this inverter. It is worth noting that in my house everything is as efficient as possible. I accidentally turned off the main DC switch in the picture and the whole house was out of service. When I turned the switch back on, the whole house turned back on with no problem, including the freezer and fridge. A low-frequency transformer weighs a ton but can withstand enormous current loads. I received the package in super reinforced packaging. However, this thing is heavy and one of the terminal covers was broken. I contacted customer service and they responded immediately and within a week I had a full replacement set for free. You have to contact them via email but they will reply the same evening. Very friendly and helpful people there. This device is identical to the IAMS 6000W inverter for a lot less money. They come in different configurations. My central air and furnace work great with this unit. I have a separate switch box, which I also moved to my house when I expanded my solar system. I am using 4/0 wire from the battery bank to the inverter and I am using 2S14P (2 batteries in series and 14 of them). parallel) sealed lead-acid batteries while waiting for LiFePo4 cost to come down in a few years. CONS: If I could add a feature, I would make the AC switch point adjustable. As it is, you have two choices. 20V or 21V. With a sealed lead acid battery I don't want the voltage to drop below 24.2V so I need to keep an eye on it and today is a cloudy day. I'll switch it to AC by hand before it drops below 24V. I prefer to mount mine on a flat surface rather than a wall, so I'm having a hard time seeing that area in my configuration. You can't run in parallel with another precision inverter, so you're stuck at 6000 watts, which works great for my small house (960 square feet with basement shops, so double that).

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Crumpled
