From time to time I snag the plug when doing other things and,,, well you know it just does not work well when unplugged for some reason :).

So what do I do.. I go to the remote panel for my Xantrex Prosine 2.0,, I mean it has a decent 3-stage converter in it (Small issue with a leaky pass transistor but hey we can live (Short term) with that) Flip the CHARGER switch to ON, and go back to bed... Next AM I flip back to off and plug in the 9180
