    RV inverter question

    Thank you so much for the diagram! When I get back over to the storage unit I can compare this for sure. The existing ATS is separate from the inverter so it may possibly look like the drawing you sent me. I know it is unlikely I will remember to turn off the breaker every time. You guys are...

    RV inverter question

    Okay that's what I'm thinking. Just replace it with a 2000 watt inverter. Sorry if I'm dumb, but what do you mean by discrete inverter? Yeah I'm not counting on running the AC off grid! Well maybe for a bit on the generator.

    RV inverter question

    Could you point me towards a possible diagram? Sorry if I am being stupid or needy. PSW would make the most sense, and I suppose that 2000 watts inverter only is the way to go. I wonder if I can rewire the panel to make the microwave on the drivers side work off of that inverter? Or if it...

    RV inverter question

    Probably exactly what is going on as it seems to be the same breakdown with the exception of the TV in the bedroom which is on the driver's side and runs off the inverter that seems to power the entire passenger side. I'm not really planning on it - it's a nice benefit but not the main focus...

    RV inverter question

    Thanks everyone for your comments!!! My followups/questions... yes there is already an ATS onboard I don't know? I'm not powering any 240 VAC loads off of the inverter, but when I am on shore power I do run both ACs. A few of you have commented so I guess I did something stupid? There was...

    RV inverter question

    Hi all - sorry if this is already addressed. I searched and couldn't find what I was looking for. On my 50-amp RV that I bought earlier this year, I then bought and installed the 400 watt Rich Solar bundle that Will recommended to upgrade the 12-volt system. I also replaced the Lead batteries...

    What company did you use for the $13.6k @ 4.5kw system? Also, mini-inverters or 1 big one?

    Thanks Will! So I saw in your last video you were going to create the shed system in your backyard; I assume that's what you mean by the backyard system. Any idea how many kWh that will be? I don't need nearly the AC that you do in Las Vegas and our heat is natural gas, but still think I'm...

    Will - love your videos. Long time-first time, blah blah blah. Anyhow, how did you decide on a 4.5 kWh system? Seems awfully small for a 4 BR house and a Tesla, especially in the winter. I'd love to appropriately size my system and based on a max usage of 1300 kWh in a month, which is bound to...
