Magnum Energy hybrid inverter and a 15k BTU A/C
Magnum Energy has an inverter/converter (MSH3012M is the likely one for my next rig) which can help with low power at a CG by supplanting it with battery power if needed. If this is used in combination with a good battery charger (so the jars don't completely discharge), it will go a long way to ensure that the A/C doesn't burn out due to undervoltage.
As a charger, it has a five state charger (usual three stages, plus equalize and desulfate modes), and as an inverter, it is PSW which means that it will be better than most shore power connections.
Any opinions good/bad/ugly on this inverter/charger? For what it does, it seems like a best of breed product for any RV except the larger fifth wheels, type "A" rigs, or Super Cs.
I'm also wondering if its surge capacity, 3900 watts for five seconds, 3800 watts for 30 seconds would be enough to handle the inrush current for a 15K BTU A/C. If there is any doubt, maybe I should pay the 500 bones price difference and go for the MSH4024M model... although for a class "B" RV, that might be overkill.
