Also PDI is a US company. I have driven past the plant. (Many times, grew up less than half an hour from there).
I have a mixed battery system on this rig, 3 or 4 Group 29's and a pair of GC-2. now when the GC-2's shorted out,, The converter still kept things fully powered. (But if I lost 120vac the inverter went LOW-DC in abourt 1 second).. Curently I have dropped them off line. I'll replace them soon.
