Converter putting out 16.5V, some appliances don't work.

If by chance an inverter is in your future, an IC (inverter-charger) comes with a darn good charger. Then you just kill your converter.

I really don't have a use for an inverter over say 150-300W for small stuff. Most inverter/chargers are well above that, and would be very inefficient for such as small load. I purchased everything I could so its 12V native. The Microwave and air conditioner are 120V but I'd never run them off my batteries either. Refrig off LP when not on shore power.
