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 ...

Hi,
I've run my 400 watt MSW inverter from cigarette plug outlets successfully since 2000. Just once I blew a fuse because I placed an 800 watt load on the inverter by accident.
It would be extremely inconvenient for me to add the wire needed to run 100 amps of power to where I wish to use the inverter. I already have a 3000 watt properly installed and up to code. But I don't wish to run a 50 watt load on it--there is too much overhead.
It would simplify my life to carry 2 inverters instead of 3--and PSW is preferable.
I wanted to know if the inrush surge on the 1000 watt inverter would pop the 15 amp fuse. Does anyone have that information?
