Inverter Swap 1000 for 2000watts
I have a fried 1000watt inverter/ charger, and I am wondering if I can swap it w a 2000watt one without any other changes to my electrical system.? They are the same brand and are the same exact unit,...

How did you fry it ?
Too much inverter load?
Too much charging load ?
Or bad voltage ?
The 2000w can use more amps from the battery
Is the existing BATTERY wire big enough to carry the amps
FOR 2000w. Approx 170 amps, when you use full power
Be sure to put a fuse at the BATTERY on the inverter cable that is sized for the existing wire, Not Max inverter power
Other wise you might melt the wire and start a wire
Say when you use the big MW or Keurig coffee maker
