at what load, how many watts ? what item/device
you don't normally have an inrush on say an electric heating element
but you would on a large fan or say a small compressor fridge
my fridge draws 90>100 watts running, but has a 900w surge, almost 70 amps into the inverter
another problem is say a switching power supply for digital controled electric blanket
avg power use is quite low, but the peaks are relatively high
it only draws power thru part of the sinewave cycle, makeing avg use low, but the actual amps flow higer
