Great thoughts. Yeah, I suck at professional filming gear, back drops, expensive video and audio editing stuff since I don't get things for free to do promotion and own anyone lies to say its what it is not. And as a result they make big $$$ to afford all that nice stuff, I have to use all I buy to save $$$ to pay my own way. I still use Windows Movie Maker i got as a hack from Major Geeks, when I get a HEY WE WANNA SEND YOU _____ emails, I say you can send me a 50% off code and I will buy it. Lots of them never reply again. That's because you OWE them if its 100% freeeee. I refused lots of things, now my daughter days ago gets a Amazon store that sent her a Vtoman power station, I allowed it. They may start sending her lots of stuff, And I told her take it. I tell them I'll do the video, they then offer to pay real $$ cash for her too, I say NO, the Channel is mine. BUT *I* DO NOT OWE THEM!! hahaha If it's good, we shall see, If it's not I ain't got no one getting pissy demanding I lie, and viewers love Kiera so much if they trash talk her they will be slammed with neg ratings. Too damn many freaking Pro's selling crap direct on You Tube. Open box, WOW its what you HAVE to buy, End video. Just dumb. I put links, not being a promoter, they are getting 10%. They do offer me 1 to 2% base affiliate, non associate, so if you want it, can use it, it survives REAL use, then you have a choice. 10% is the pay you get for selling out, 1% is what you get for standing your morals. So, Am I broke doing You Tube, damn near, but I'm not bought.

I'm an old elec tech, and what you have demonstrated is correct, all of it. With todays technology and manufacturing capabilities, the manufacturing cost is mostly determined by raw materials. The more materials, the more it cost. So the weight of item, when compared to a similarly rated item, will determine quality or crap.

You are unique in the way you compare them :) MOST inverter manufacturer lie and lie and lie!

THEY HAVE NO SHAME!

@JOHNDANIEL1 2 года назад

Problems with most inverters is there only wired for a 15 to 20 amp outlet so it doesn't really matter if they're 20,000 watt you're not going to pull over 1900 Watts out of any outlet on any inverter at the same time so the smartest move is to buy 1,500 or 2,000 watt inverters with soft start standby systems and use them in a row. It's also an amazing redundancy Factor that doesn't cost you an arm and leg to do and if you have a failure you're not crippled so stay away from anything over 4,000 watt it's pointless even the extremely expensive ones they sell to the wealthy folks, one failure = Total blackout.

@ZPDSurvival 11 месяцев назад

Hey John, It;s been a year since I built my solar set up and I finally purchased a power queen mini. I am having trouble with the bms shutting the battery down because the Alffaa inverter is drawing too much or something. I am doing a direct connection and I installed the positive lead first. Hopefully I didn't destroy anything. Usually inn a car the positive is hooked up first. Anyways I have a test light and this video has helped me a lot already. Thank you.

@JOHNDANIEL1 11 месяцев назад

Some of the NEW and IMPROVED LOL ones have a BMS that is so sensitive that is your hooked up and the battery shuts off when you turn it on, it is causing that. Using 2 will spread the start up amps into half and that will stop. But the main issue it the feedback the battery "thinks" it is seeing. But if it is shutting down due to you having is running and pulling 1500 watts, or over 1250 watts that's due to you pulling more than a 100AH can do. 1300 watts AC output is 100+ Amps draw at 12 volts.

@ZPDSurvival 11 месяцев назад

@@JOHNDANIEL1 Thank You for responding. I had it working running a vacuum 850watts. I think the BMS is too sensitive when turning the inverter off and on without a load on it. I could buy another battery but I really shouldn't have to. I am making a video. Enjoy your day.

It's too small to run both microwave and refrigerator at the same time, but neither one would be bothered by the voltage since they are unlike compressors and air conditioners, they don't have a amps to torque need.

Hello sir, I've got a POWEDRIVE 3000W inverter that's running in reduced capacity, it only powers my little Fridge in the truck, if I try the microwave it beeps and displays OVERLOAD Any idea what could be the issue with it? Thanks in advance.

@JOHNDANIEL1 5 месяцев назад

I am thinking you have this in a semi truck? For a 3000 watt inverter you should have no less than 1/0 cable of real copper but as I recall those inverters come with 1 awg CCA copper clad aluminum cables and can not pull over a real 2000 watts. A 1000 watt microwave would pull over 2000 watts on start up, and take 1400+ to make 1000 watts heating. The likely thing is not enough size cable or battery supply to it. Since its a square wave you can add 12% required energy pull for a load like a microwave so this may be the issue. Lots of my trucker friends I have convinced to buy a 3200 watt SWI Power pure sine ( $290 ) and they have ran 4 strands of 2 awg cable ( 2 red/2 black) from battery to a main power spot for theirs and they can run everything like they are plugged in to their house. If you have a 12 volt jump start box you can connect it to the cables on the back of your POWERDRIVE and then run the microwave, if it runs then you know your undersized on cable. The few extra amps may make all the difference. These can show overload in either condition, starving of amps, or over loading on draw.

@TolaTrucking 5 месяцев назад

@JOHNDANIEL1 I sincerely appreciate your detailed response, yes it is installed on a Peterbilt, it worked fine before with the same setup powering a microwave, Toaster, coffee maker (not at same time). Have a blessed day.

@JOHNDANIEL1 5 месяцев назад

Check all connections. Should be no issues on a Peterbilt since they have 160A alternators but cables can get loose, ground cables to chassis can get corrosion, and batteries can get weak in winter. If your handy is to use a amp meter on it, ALL truckers should carry a DC amp/volt meter. See if its pulling the amps or not, and troubleshoot it. One car battery is only 20% of what those need in amps. Of course best thing is get a SWI 3200 and cable it good.

@larrysmith3181 2 года назад

Will that work in a RV for AC

@JOHNDANIEL1 2 года назад

Not normally. RV ac units draw as high as 2500 watts on start up and run at around 1350 to 1600 watts. a 2500 watt version would do it, not a 1500. Depends on the BTU and brand. Older 8500 BTU units could run on it, but all you can buy now is 13,500 to 15,000 BTU models that need more start up watts and don't actually cool as well as old 10k models did.

@igotthevibe576 Год назад

Can u run a 1500w heater off that.

@JOHNDANIEL1 Год назад

Yes, but you shouldn't if you want it to last a long time. 1500 is the capability, like your car or truck may have 200 horse power as its capability, but should you expect it to last if you run it at wide open 200 horse power 24/7 till it blows up. People who like to walk do seem to do that, just like people who like to smell smoke take things to a very expensive limit to prove a point they have spare cash to blow!! I would recommend the Xijia 3000 ebay.us/kudOaj for the purpose of a 1500 heater, and when constantly pulling 1500 watts, you need lots of battery too.

Luckily that dud was a free inverter by a seller trying to get me to promote it. He failed. You would think if you got a product you want to send somebody to promote you would have made damn sure it worked right! But instead I tell people that the one that I researched and purchased is a better option. So wow, I lose money to buy one that does work, and lose money by showing one I got it for free and would have made something on is junk. I guarantee you that half the people that view the video wanted me to promote the crap one, folks are so fnk fraud programmed now huh.

@@JOHNDANIEL1 Not me! About 40 years ago I nearly bankrupt MerlinGerin. We were fitting Halogen space heaters in the hanger at Manchester Airport. They came up with a new 500A busbar that was laminated to make it bendable. My first retort when given it was "That's not a 500A bar.... look at the size of it"! Much wailing and gnashing of teeth later I fitted it. Arriving to work the next day I was met by a posy of management who were intent on banning me from the site! It turns out they switched it on after parking a nice new Boeing over it ..... and it caught fire! (luckily for them just the bar not the plane). They flew a crack team in from Paris (MG's main plant at the time) to "fix my mistake". They were so cocksure of themselves and that I had not tightened up the bolts properly that they marched me over to look at how it should be done. Needless to say they had upgraded the bar and were intent on blaming me ...... right on up to the moment I told them I had a camera at home with the pics showing the original bar in place! They were Not happy bunnies ...... and I think MG were even more unhappy when their bodge came to light!

Cheap inverters can fail in a way that can burn your house down. Been there, done that. I wrote the tech paper on it. It's possible to do a test to see how easy it is to make them fail.

@JOHNDANIEL1 2 года назад

The red inverter has a display over the undersized transformers, it's the transformers in probably 90% that are the fire starters. Caps blow, resistors toast, mosfets pop, but poor transformers fuse and burn like hell. With a display over them like the red one which is already in very thin aluminum, you have a weak point to the outside. But the biggest fire I ever saw was a very expensive Schneider 3000 watt inverter.

@JOHNDANIEL1 2 года назад

My motto, always under fuse, always overcable, and never buy an inverter with the intent to use over 80% of its normal capacity.

@redhilllabs3245 2 года назад

@@JOHNDANIEL1 The "undersize transformer" is new to me. Transformer inverters are preferable for a host of reasons beyond the space of this comment. When an output MOSFET fails in a transformerless inverter it can put DC on to the power lines in the house and burning up or ruining a myriad of devices. Also you haven't tested an inverter until you hook full load to it, put it in a chamber at 120 deg F, let it all get hot and stabilized, then repeatedly hard short the output multiple times. Much of this is discussed in my paper.

@JOHNDANIEL1 2 года назад

Would you test a car this way? I'm sure dead shorting anything or deliberately putting it in an environment that the manufacturer itself says not to do leads to failure. My wife's van has a redline of 7000 rpms, I'm not really sure I've ever will hold it to the floor until the engine blew up and shot shrapnel into me to see whether or not it was capable of sustaining 7,000 RPMs. I do know it will jump to about 5200 in a hard passing action. So I keep it like I do inverters. See the manufacturers limits, and don't deliberately try to destroy it by staying under that rating. I remember a guy when I was younger had a big sansui stereo and he said because it could put out 120 w that he just turned the volume all the way up and after about a hour he melted it down he declared it was a piece of garbage. Sorta same mentality I guess with people when they buy an inverter. They want a 3000 watt inverter to put out 3000 constant Watts, but they don't get in their car demanding that it put out 500 constant horsepower.

@FirstSuiGeneris 2 года назад

I wondered why you had red and blacks hanging on the nails in the first vlog; now I know! Please give your philosophy over fusing for an inverter and inverter sizing for people? Seems to me and my philosophy people should fuse at 75% of inverter watts, not at peak or surge watts. Then sizing an inverter for their needs should be the same, basically! If they are going to use a max 1000watts, then they should get a 1500 W or even 2000 W, NOT a 1000w inverter. Then size the fuse at 75% of the correct size inverter. The components should last for years to come. It's crazy; I have seen 200 amp to 350 amp fuses for a small system for their inverters, and they are always telling me they are protecting the inverter [ 2000 watts ] from failure. And don't get me to start on some people wiring! Your expertise will be greatly appreciated.

@JOHNDANIEL1 2 года назад

Fuse for no more than 80% rated, run at no more than 70% rated and you'll be more than not staying within the actual capacities of your power equipment. Always remember that Shy-na math is 10% over rated and another 10% assured failure built in. 20% embellished built in. So since it's cheaper to always over estimate need and under demand for results to be safe you keep that in mind on every step and your ok.

@@fc436 I would like a Epever inverter but at the time I was searching on them they only made a 2000 watt version in 12 volt, no versions in 36 volt and their line up was not planning to sell to the mobile or RV markets. 2000 watt is not sufficient for starting and running a 1000 watt microwave since that can take over 1450 watts to run, 1600 to start, all while operating anything using over 500 watts at the same time. IT would be running it at a limit too often so we passed on it. When a 3000 watt does come up, we will consider one.

oh! your system is 36v? its a american standard or your choice? in europe sound bit strange. a small system in house is often 48, a big rv system is 24 (but you need to converter for original rv load that have the ridiculous 12v. why a 1000w dont start 1600W? my victron 500( Va not W, so if PF is 0.8 500Va are 400w) start a 500w disc grinder with 1100w surge, and run 550w continuous . And is not underrated like you say before. I open my and many victron. The toroid transformer inside, ever is rated like inverter. and is not victron made but by a big inductor company . the label is made by company with date of production, code etc etc. my victron 500, have a 500VA toroidal transformer. I dont think is underrated. And speaking about quality and cost again, I short ac output on victron dozen of time...on purpose. with my friend, with a tester, not wanted, short a cheap china 4000w inverter 1 millisecond and die. i thing epever make real good inverters, is Chinese, and obviously cost a little less than victron because dont pay so much the brand. but are no cheap!! only low line model is relatively cheap. top line HF 1500w cost almost like victron 1200.

The assumption that weight is quality isn't really proven, when the red one was obviously broken.

So get one that works and show a real comparison, so we can see just why not to get one.

@JOHNDANIEL1 2 года назад

Weight in a inverter in my 25+ years of dealing with them is a sign. Bigger capacitors, bigger mosfets, better heat sinks, more copper, thicker boards all add weight. It's not aluminum engine block verses iron or lead acid verses lithium argument you see all the time. Probably few they make are broken, or quality control lacking, but all they make as made sure as hell can't supply over 750 watts and no way in any way 2200 watts through those 60 amp rated input terminals that were on it for damn sure. Pay attention to the up front fake china watt claims on these dirt cheap inverters like that red one. I spent time on it so people could understand the definition of the fake claims were obvious because the terminals weren't even capable of half its claim. The ALFFAA at least had 150 amp terminals and hit with 1020 watts from that shop vac it had no sag, distortion or voltage spike.
