Solid advice. I used to build, and work on tube amps as a hobby. Many times I would need to be in the circuit with 500+ vdc running through it. I guess I'm a bit comfortable with it LOL. Thanks!
I bought a similar inverter two years ago. It's very good but it too came with 4 AWG cables. I don't get it. At 90% inverter efficiency an inverter putting out 2000w is drawing 172a from LFP batteries in a 12v system, 86 from a 24v system. So those cables might work for a 24v system but are half what the Blue Sea Systems chart shows for a 12v system. Dunno why the inverter companies supply cables if they're unsafe when used in a 12v setup.
MFU TOO! :) Do they just pick 6 random letters and combine them together? With all of your experience testing this stuff, do you feel like there are logical limits on how big an inverter you should run with a given battery voltage? Up to 1500 watts for 12 volts, 3000 watts for 24 volts and anything higher you go to 48 volts?
Another Chinese made, poor man's high frequency, transformerless, inverter. High frequency inverter tech was developed back in the early 1990s by the Chinese as a low cost, lightweight, light duty, alternative to high quality, heavy duty low frequency, transformer based inverter tech. You might be able to start and run some high surge loads when these high frequency inverters are new, but every time you fire up one of those inductive loads, you're shortening the life of the MOSFETs in these inverters. High frequency inverters like these are notorious for having short life expectancies and low surge capacities. Not a good investment at any price.

That MoFo kicked it pretty good .Not many of the Cheaper Inverters would do more than specified.(2000 watts.. plus)
@@mannyfragoza9652 Yeah, it was pretty solid for sure man! Thanks
respectfully - even if the battery has a shut off, i would still never open up an inverter with mains connected - otherwise great review as always

My Midea inverter 10,000 btu window a/c has a heat option. If yours has heat, it would be interesting to see how much energy it pulls.

Yeah, that's why I recommend investing in better cables when I test most inverters. I've even had some come with aluminum wire. Thanks!
Fun review. Thank you!
Did it come with a ground cable? I see the ground on the front.
20 watts idle is over 2X as much as a 3000 watt Swi Power I use and have done many videos on. That's insane waste for a 2000 watt.
I also have 1500 cnswi which use only 11w idle,works great 3yrs now
@@kipdennis3796 They are the best inverters for the money you can get, been around 18+ years, not full of worthless trinket crap that waste power.
MFU TOO! :)

LOL, I was thinking the same :)
And probably goes through a test mode
Good point, probably more likely. Maybe a combo of both. Thanks!
Great job, Looks like a good inverter 👍
Thanks Buddy!
What size amp fuse would you need between the cable and the inverter
Correction what size amp would you need between the battery and the inverter
On the 12-volt battery how many ants would you recommend on the battery
A hole colony, lol 😅
@@randylenart9674 lol
Fire ants😅

Yeah but saying that would mean no more freebies or affiliate sales 👍
