SiO2 Batteries and High Amp Draws
SiO2 is a specialty battery type that most folks would have no use for vs the usual RV battery types. They cost a lot too.( I had a special reason to get one) Here is some info on them --I am not s...

Just so you know... I always assumed PSW inverters were not as efficient as MSW at turning 12 into 120.
Finally I researched... Peak efficacy is 89-90% on one 90% on the other. Identical.
Still has the PSW draw more amps than the MSW same load. So it is about the time being shorter for the PSW to beat the MSW for AH
150 amps for 3 minutes (0.05 H) = 7.5 AH
125 amps for 4 minutes (0.067 H) = 8.4 AH
But if it is a spud for as long as it takes to get soft enough by poking it with a knife, IMO you can't tell the difference for it being ready to eat if you make it 7 minutes for each case--in which the MSW then wins for having fewer AH.
150A x 0.12H = 18 AH
125A x 0.12H = 15 AH
