you running two inverters PT? I just want one but I want to size it so I cannot draw full current through the BMS on the new battery. its for the camper not the 5th wheel, I have a 2000 watt inverter in the 5th but a 2000 watt inverter can pull 166 amps and I am only using a 150 amp BMS on this one. when I do another then I can handle twice that with two batteries.
right now I have no need for AC in the camper aside from charging phones which I can do with DC, but I thought it might be nice to use the electric toaster (700 watts) once and a while and if we decide to keep this old camper instead of upgrading to a newer one then maybe add some other stuff. if I can find a decient 1500 watt pws inverter that will draw 125 amps max for a reasonable price here in canada that might be what I am looking for.
