Am I just lucky or something? I've never had an inverter fail. I have:
1. An old (bought used) Xantrex 2000 PSW (not 2.0 - it's the predecessor) that runs my sump pump during power outages from an 880 AH bank of batteries, connected using 4/0 cable and 4/0 interconnects. It's been in place for 7 years, has cause to operate several times a year, and has never let me down.
2. PowerBright 300W PSW inverter that I've been using while camping for about 12 years now. It has been used on almost every trip but probably will get much less use now due to #3.
3. New MicroSolar 1000W PSW inverter for use while camping (very inexpensive - this one could be interesting to watch how long it lasts).
