Hi Don
Someday I'll get something like the Magnum but I doubt it will be in this trailer. Ameri-lites are set up for camping, not living and there is little room for extra batteries. I've come to terms with the fact I will never run the Air due to this.

You are right, I looked all over the inverter and there is no inspection sticker. Hopefully I have the same good luck with it as I have the Eco-worthy which is also not rated.
Once I started looking for reviews on Power Jack inverters instead of Advanced as it is listed, I found more info. The caps are most likely to go out. The draw at idle is terrible and it isn't efficient. Half of the manual that comes with it is dedicated to repairs and how to test it if it does stop working. I just don't know that my eyes and hands are up to doing electronics anymore. Otherwise there are replacement parts available.
