LOL at the bong in one of the inverter pictures on fleabay
that powermax is interesting, could make my own hybrid inverter system without having to swap my Magnum for a Magnum Hybrid.
Not sure what is meant there. I have had a PowerMax 100amper and a 2000w inverter mounted together for four years now, but I have not used the charger to support the inverter.
I have done PT's trick when on 15a shore power, to put the MW, etc on the inverter and just plug the rig with its Parallax 7355 converter into the shore power. That keeps the big 120v things- only run occasionally- from popping any breakers while the converter gets the batteries back up afterwards in between when the big things are on.
BTW, since that older PM3 (which can be found at a lower price than that at times) PowerMax now has PM4s and Randy at bestconverters has his own version of those he calls Boondockers. There is also a manually adjustable voltage version.
