inverter and engine alternator
I have a xantrax 1800 inverter factory installed in a 2011 Greyhawk. On my first shakedown run it would power my frdge and microwave while driving. Now, while driving, it only converts off the batter...

Don't know if this helps but, the inverter is hardwired into the 120V system so power always runs through it whether it's on or not. So when I'm running off shore power or generator I don't usually even turn it on. Only time I use it is when traveling so I have power to appliances, water pump and outlets. Now, when I travel and turn on the inverter, I have power to TV, water pump and most outlets. What has dropped of the grid, so to speak, are the fridge, microwave and a kitchen outlet by the microwave. Inverter shows to only be converting battery power where it used to show it was converting from a power source (like it would if I turned it on plugged into shore power or running the generator).
