It can easily link onto a cut hose - and add less than a minute to a normal 5 minute tank rinse ;-)... Re: what are you paying for insurance?Check out Progressives website... You can do an interactive quote that allows you to change many options... Try raising the deductible and the rate will lower the cost...

And if you buy more than one there is another discount... Just add a couple to their cart and then it will show you the total discounted price ;-)Re: What to look for in an inverter/charger?The 458 is a modified sine-wave... Many of the newer electronic items (incuding coffee machines and such that may have a computer chip inside contrrolling it) do not play well with the modified sine-wave inverters... Check out this pure sine model... (It includes a nice popout remote) http://www.xantrex.com/power-products/inverter-chargers/freedom-hfs.aspxRe: My WiFi and Cellular Booster InstallNice install... Two things... I would use something other than eternabond to secure the antenna on the roof... In 2-3 years the tech may change requiring a modified/new system... And doesn't the Weboost inside antenna need to be within 18 inches of the cell device?Re: mounting solar controllerWhy not mount it right on the back of the panel....

As stated this is the least hassle method...

In your situation you could install it between your present transfer switch and the 120v panel... and remove/disable present charger http://www.xantrex.com/power-products/inverter-chargers/freedom-hfs.aspx https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtQQupeOF60
