You could, but you would probably need a few of them, or a really hefty one depending on the size of the 12v inverter and the load you want to run on it.I want to have a 48V battery bank that can power a 12V inverter. Can I use a 48V DC to 12V DC converter for this?
Yes, that's what you do.I want to have a 48V battery bank that can power a 12V inverter. Can I use a 48V DC to 12V DC converter for this?
Any idea on where I can find a nice heavy duty one?Yes, that's what you do.
Victron sells one, limited to 400W.Any idea on where I can find a nice heavy duty one?
Divide the wattage you want to run (plus conversion/inverter overhead of say 20%) by 12v.I’d probably get a 3000W inverter but most likely would only power things that total 1500-2000W. What kind of specs should I be looking for with a DC-DC converter for this?
Why not purchase a 3000W 48V pure sine inverter like this?I’d probably get a 3000W inverter but most likely would only power things that total 1500-2000W. What kind of specs should I be looking for with a DC-DC converter for this?

Any 48v inverters that you could recommend that don’t have GFCI? I had to disable mine since Renogy already has the ground bonded within the unit.Please remember that the DC-DC converter must be capable of any surge currents the inverter will try to supply to the loads. Also, there will be an efficiency loss of ~10% for the DC-DC converter and another loss of ~10% to ~15% for the inverter. 48V pure sine inverters are around the same price as 12V inverters.

I have the 2500W version. It works very well.Why not purchase a 3000W 48V pure sine inverter like this?

And the best part is pronouncing the name of it when you tell people about it!I have the 2500W version. It works very well.

I just say Reliable Electric, because that's its name. (YueQing Reliable Electric)And the best part is pronouncing the name of it when you tell people about it!
For some reason they don't have WZRELB as the product brand name on that one. I meant pronouncing WZRELB would be a challenge. Anybody can pronounce YueQing..I just say Reliable Electric, because that's its name. (YueQing Reliable Electric)
I thought you said you'd get an inverter, which sounds like you don't already have one.I like the inverter I currently have and my charge controller is capable of 5200W of solar but only with a 48V system
I have one but I am upgrading slowlyI thought you said you'd get an inverter, which sounds like you don't already have one.
