you should be ok with that wire for your testing.
the meter on the inverter may not be accurate i would run it with a load and see how long it runs before it starts beeping the low voltage alarm
I have read to never run a deep cycle below 40% charge. Low voltage alarm goes off at 10.1.
from what I have read, this would be almost a total discharge????
i think 10.5v is considered total discharge
you never said what you are going to power with the inverter but the numbers sound TV/PC entertainment, where all you need is 300w
1200w will a run a coffee maker or some MWs, but that is 70-90amps
which will be hard to do with (1) battery
sometimes even (2) can be a struggle
I thought 10.5 was also total discharge. Wondering why alarm is set at 10.1????
It will be powering 2 led tv's, a ceiling fan and a satay lie tv box.
The system will have two group 27 batteries in parallel
