One 100 watt 12 volt panel
Two 12 volt 100 AH Gel Batts
1500/3000 watt 12 volt to 120 volt pure sine Inverter
Or
1000/2000 watt modified sine inverter
Goal: power 11.2 amp 120 volt fridge
The 1000 watt modified sine will run the fridge for close to 8 hours, until the batteries are at minimums of 10-10.5 volts.
The 1500 pure sine shuts down after about 4 hours with the batteries around 12.5 volts.
The rub is that this is the second pure sine each from different companies exhibiting the same behavior.
What is happening here?
Batteries are connected to inverter by double 6 AWG wires (4 wires total) 18" long.
Batteries are parallel wired with 4 AWG wire (2 total wires) 18" long
