I have my AimsPower 2000 watt PSW inverter in the battery compartment (in my Palomino pup up TC) along with the water pump and the FW tank and all the electricals too...
and I'm running 2 flooded cell deep cycle batteries.
Having said that, my batteries are both in a sealed compartment vented to the outside, one vent on top, one underneath (the battery box). I've never in 2 years had any issue at all.
I wanted the Inverter as close to the battery bank as possible to keep the leads short and avoid as much resistance loss as possible. Inverters, by their very nature are amp hungry beasts so the closer to the battery bank the better.
Besides, there was no better place to install it...lol
