Magnum CSW1012 vs Xantrex ProWatt SW1000
Been looking at the Magnum CSW1012 but can't find much for reviews on it. I like how it outputs 1000w continuous vs the Prowatt at 900w continuous, it's also a little smaller and lighter but cost $75 ...

I don't understand why a 1500 watt inverter is to big?
Because they are trying (as I recall) to live mostly off solar, with as little generator use as possible.
Bigger inverter = bigger idle draw (usually, not always). Idle draw is a big thing when you are living on 50-60 AH a day.
I would get 1200-1500W IF there was any available for not much more money than Magnum 1000, and IF it didn't have idle draw much higher than Mag.
