Capacity Testing and 20 HR Rating
I'm thinking about doing a capacity test on my four GC2's. They have a 20hr rating of 215Ah. One thing I'm curious about is how the 20hr rating would have been determined. Being 6v, would they h...

My Can Tire (Xantrex built) 1000w PSW inverter (Spec says 1000w continuous rating NOT 900w) ran the 700w Danby microwave ( wants 1050w input) just fine several times and then it went poof. Took the lid off and there was a nasty looking black splotch around one area of the circuit board. Beyond my DIY skills :(
When it was doing ok running the microwave, it was showing 1050 on its watt meter display and the yellow overload lamp was on. (being over 1000w at the time) It was drawing around 100a according to the Trimetric, which is correct according to the "divide by 10" rule.
That's all I know about that. Somebody else's same model inverter might do better or worse, no idea.
