I have a some questions for those who have added inverters to their TCs.
A. Where did you put the inverter and why?
B. What would you do differently?
C. Is it worth getting an inverter with a builtin transfer relay switch?
D. What inverters should I absolutely avoid?
A: Under the bathroom sink, because that's the only place it would fit and because it's very near the battery bank. Cables are less then 2 feet long
B: Nothing
C: Yes, I think so, because it drastically simplifies installation, because all power goes through inverter (from shorepower) meaning I didn't have to add another transfer switch or complicate the AC wiring by adding "inverter only" outlets.
D: I will say what inverters I "will / would" buy: Xantrex, Magnum, Outback Power. I'd also go true sine wave if buying another inverter.
