New power inverter?
It looks like we might be in the market for a new converter and need suggestions. We have a travel trailer that stays hooked up to 110 year around. Back in the summer we started having issues with our refrigerator shutting down. Closed the camper down for the winter but this past week-end decided to spend a couple of nights in it and work on refrigerator. Because of the cold temps we ran the furnace, refrigerator,lights,etc. During the night we woke to a very cold unit. Everything was off. We could reset the breaker and things would work again. Next day we replaced the main breaker. Things worked great for awhile then everything shut down again. So we turned the refrigerator off thinking this was the problem. It wasn't. As soon as things shut down it would try to operate off the 12v system. The batteries(1 yr old) must not be charging because it wouldn't kick in. Everything's dead again until we turned breaker off, let it rest then turn it back on again. Works 4-5 hrs max. Since the refrigerator has to have 12v to run the controls & the furnace runs on 12v we figure it must be our power converter.What do you think?
