I'm almost afraid to ask this, because this might just break the space-time continuum and cause irreparable harm to the ozone layer. But, ... using my 2000 watt inverter, can I run my 1000 watt mic...

3 tons,
My OEM Dometic microwave draws 1591 watts. I'm not about to replace it. It worked ok on a Cobra 2500 watt MSW inverter, and performs well with the Magnum 3000 PSW.
I have doubts that 210 amp-hours of GC batteries would power the inverter for very long.
Well if we meet up sometime, I’d love to run the air cond for a while (30-45 min w/comp cycling) and that might make a believer out of you (works on golf carts, eh??) - I love doing this and then watching folks gasp (for some pre-conceiveded bias?) in disbelief - I’d be more than happy to demonstrate....
As I stated, its usually NOT the GC’s that are the problem, its the equipment and/or the overall configuration - Inverter wattage is only one part of the equation, the equipment needs to be compatible in all ways to run optimally...
