    What inverter for modest use

    We plan to boondock this winter, relying on our two Weize 100Ah LiFePO4 batteries and our 200 watt solar panels. We don't plan on regularly using any 120 VAC devices, so we don't have an inverter (we have an 1800 watt generator when needed). We do have some minimum 120 VAC needs, including...

    Inverter for microwave, hair dryer, and Keurig

    I'm going to add an inverter to our rig. We'll need it to power an 800 W microwave, Keurig machine (peak usage 1500 watts), and a small travel hair dryer, and never more than one of the above at a time. We don't need it for anything else. Would a 1500 W continuous (3000 W peak) work for this? I...
