Hi BigFly10,
It doesn't have to the be fridge--it can be any 120 volt load, for example a 100 watt light bulb.

Hi,
Seeing as the GFI is part of the inverter changing to another would be--hard.
I've occasional had my inverter fail over when attempting to run the microwave. The work around for me was to place a small load on the inverter to "wake it up". The fridge works well for this at 300 watts.
It is interesting you say this because, as mentioned in my testing, when I run my fridge in the rear of the TT before the microwave, it doesn't trip the GFI. I usually don't run this fridge off the inverter though and I would prefer not to turn it on each time I want to run the microwave.
