Inverter Wiring

[Joyce and Richard Hayden]

Yep - the toaster and the coffee pot takes a lot and so does the vacuum - my heart stops when my wife vacuums the bus and I watch the battery meters...

A toaster is a hog to. My coffee pot & toaster can't be on at the same time with the 1500 W

unplug the bus from shore and turn the inverter on.Any hot receptical
found must thenbe inverter powered. ( I have one bb installed bay
receptical that is inverter hot). run a new receptical close to the
new fridge from there.

Watts devided by voltes = amps. W/V=A .1500/120=12.5. 1500 watt
inverter gives 120 volts @12.5 amps max. I bet the fridge has a watt
or amp value advertised.

I found the biggest amp/watt hog appliance is a coffee pot.
