    Thanks that’s what I though. Otherwise I’m stepping up from 12v to 240 to then drop back to 120 with all the losses.

    I don’t know the make but it’s large and fitted by the dealer on all their units. It works fine. If I install an inverter 12v to 240v. Does it make sense to then feed the transformer 240v to step it back down to 120v? Or fit a second inverter to feed 120v and cut out the transformer?

    Thanks, I did see that in another post and tried shorting the pins, but didn’t seem to make any difference, although I tried with a ’fan’ of wire. I could try a paper clip perhaps.

    I’ll ask on our UK Facebook group. The “transformed” 120v is used for ac, ceiling fan, microwave tv and battery 12v converter. A lot of people swap out the tv & microwave for uk 240v. I can say these items have worked ok over the 2 years since purchased. I usually turn off fuse for converter in...

    How often do you have to re-wake it up? It’s not something my wife could do if I’m not about.

    We live full time in a Rockwood 5th wheel in the UK. 110/12v standard on the Rockwood UK mains 250v On UK conversation they fit a transformer to supply 120v. I’m fitting lithium and a Victron inverter/charger 2000watt. However would a 240v Victron work sending 240v power to the transformer or...
