Magnum CSW1012 vs Xantrex ProWatt SW1000
Been looking at the Magnum CSW1012 but can't find much for reviews on it. I like how it outputs 1000w continuous vs the Prowatt at 900w continuous, it's also a little smaller and lighter but cost $75 ...

EG, my reading light is a CFL bulb in one of the 120v wall lamps. Using the 3000w inverter, this lamp causes a draw of 1 amp as seen on the Trimetric. That beats the 3 amps the regular 12v light draws and that CFL gives more light. (I don't need a bunch of LEDs instead, thanks)
Use a 12 vdc LED bulb with a standard E26 base and you won't have to use the inverter at all and will draw significantly less power, just 350 ma with the bulb I use. :)
