I can't find any relevant info about the Krieger 2000W inverter. Brought it on Amazon. It is only 13 months old. I only turn it on 1-2 times a week and only for charging small power tool, flashlight and some 18650 batteries. I have not had a power outage since I built my 300W solar backup rig...

Well that makes sense. I suppose I've become distrustful of stuff being "off" when it really totally isn't. Hey, Just to be sure, with the limited use of the things I listed in my OP, the 2 AWG for the battery the, 4AWG wiring for the inverter and the 250 ANL fuse and 250 amp breaker are ok for...

Yes I ordered a Lifepo charger that should arrive soon and I have a new meter and yep it's a cheapo smh, from HF. I got the battery delivered last week and it read the voltage at 13.14 which is like 50% SOC like the battery maker said it would be when it arrived. Since I didn't have the Lipo...

That's alot of idle usage on the inverters part that can add up smh. Good to know, I'll remember that. Every bit counts when one has to depend on it. Haven't received the inverter yet it's due in a few days. Thanks for that info. The solar panels are the RNG-100D-SS wattage is listed at 100 W X...

Yes, the watt hog heater smh that's why I put that ? mark on that one. Perhaps when I get another battery. I have a watt meter that just arrived that I will measure the watt usage of things with today, but I have a some averages of watt usage of the appliances until I take accurate readings...

Hello everyone, I've been lurking this forum and watching Will's videos. I like his basic 400 watt build but am testing the waters with a 200 watt system. I plan on using this to power some tools and as a backup (no grid for 4 days last year 3 this year) to intermittently power a few things like...
