Ok, so I bought a parts inverter... a quality inverter.
Got it home, hooked up test leads to a battery, 18ga jumpers...
Powering this on, SMOKES my test leads.
How many amps should an inverter pull just powering on?
And, yes... I resistor charged the capacitors first.
I will use larger wire for my next test, but I wasnt expecting serious amps on a simple power up...
