Inverter/12volt-24 volt question
Hi,I have a tundra 24 inverter that I took out of my Freighter semi and am installing in my tt. I am taking out 2 6volt batteries and repacing them with 2 12volt bateries. Question-how does this af...

Thanks for your responses. My original intent was to utilize what I already have to both keep the cost down and investigate a design a system for a future RV.
The Tundra is a 2000 watt inverter. Not sure but I think it is a modified wave.
My friend did all the wiring and set up for this system. He did so using the 2-6 volt Trojan batteries and it didn't work. I replaced all the electrical outlets on the 20 amp circuit thinking that I had a short. Didn't work.
I installed switches to isolate the inverter from the shore power.
You most likely saw in my signature the I have a 100 watt solar on my rig. I don't think that I used it maybe more than a few times. It doesn't put out enough energy with the 2 50 watt panels.
I would like to learn more on what I can do with my 2 6 volt batteries even if I have to get another inverter.
For the time being, I don't need the solar. I would like to be able to run 2 CPAP machines at night. I want to run the refrigerator while driving instead of using the propane. Most likely I could charge the batteries while driving from place to place.
Is a 2000 watt inverter large enough to run that 20 amp circuit?
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks
