    To connect a petrol inverter generator to a 1000w Renogy inverter so that it can charge the battery and run my apple fridge...

    No AC power I am completely off grid. Storing cold energy is a really good idea and definitely easy to do, if the juice gets a little frosty that is OK, it just has to be kept from fermenting as what goes into the 50 litre fridge is for juice. I am going to do that, it's a great idea.

    Hi Mike, No not together, I was going to do one or the other. Following your advice I have bought a cable for emergency charging via the inverter and if I understand you correctly, I could have the battery charger running with everything solar and fridge still connected and working, inverter...

    My 'fridge' is a 50 litre mini chest freezer that I turned into a fridge by using a plug in brewers thermometer that controls temp regulation and power switching on via a probe running into the 'fridge' it stays off longer by being freezer standard insulated. But what you said about the inverter...

    I have a 230v to 12v battery charger stashed for Lifepo4 batteries. I had thought of using it to charge the battery but would that mean I had to unplug the fridge from the inverter whilst I do it? That was why I was wondering about going direct through the inverter and running fridge and...

    If it helps this is my generator and this is the blue 1000w inverter I have, the AC input is there on the left. Surely it isn't just a case of get a kettle plug and go from the 240v output of the generator and into the inverter with it. I am scared to try that because it seems dangerously easy...

    I only use the solar set up to power a fridge to store fresh pressed apple juice, but on cloudy days I need a way of topping up the battery and running the fridge at the same time and thought if I can hook the generator up to the inverter this would be a good solve. Otherwise I might need to buy...
