do not require the inverter section to be on.
When the Magnum inverter is turned off the fans do NOT run. I know that for a fact.
I assumed they were 120 volt AC fans, so thanks for the correction.
It is a stupid design to have them turn off when the inverter is powered down--particularly if they are DC fans.
And yes the 12 volt DC supply to the inverter was still turned on.

Why would the cooling fans NOT be powered by the inverter itself ?
Am I missing something here ??
They are powered by the inverter. But if you turn off the inverter the fans cease to run. Or, if 120 volt shore power is being used to charge the battery bank via the Magnum, is disconnected, the fans also stop running.
