This is a short video of my Inverter Installation. In it I show where overcurrent protection should be. #hvac #hvactech #hvactechnician #servicevan #inverter #inverterconnection #harborfreight
I have had this same inverter in 2 pickups in the back shell. I am adding the 3rd install. Bought 25 feet of #2 fine copper wire and a 100 amp breaker like the one you used on the battery (I will find out if this breaker is big enough soon enough) . I ran both leads to the battery. In the flexible duct I got from Menards. I pre installed the wire in the duct before running it along the frame to the back of the truck. I didn't use sealed conduit as I didn't want it to hold water and freeze. I use mine for all kinds of things. Saws, RV, Dremels, grinders. Only thing I found that didn't like it was a conduct duct wire blower motor that was old. Very handy to have. I enjoy your videos. I was a trouble shooter for at&t for 42 years in a service truck by myself and went into as you know all kinds of places, Some good some not so good. I laugh along with you as I see and know exactly what your heading into... smelling those places from the street is disheartening.... Watching you fix the aircon and the furnaces has helped me get a grasp on fixing my own stuff and last week got the AC back on line at our Church Camp. Ant's were in the contactor. Weed eater had hit the thermostat wiring. Always fun. Keep up the good work.
Nice set up, I have a 2,000 amp inverter in my trunk, powers my wireless printer and microwave since I’m on the road and print paperwork daily. Beats driving to fed ex to pay for printing.
I hav a van and how I keep the dust and dirt out is I open all the doors and windows and use a leaf blower to blow anything that will blow out. Then I make my kids pick it up🙀🙂
Yes can be a pain to install.. have put a couple in emergency vehicles and you have to get creative on where to install them.. nice job on yours. You could put a high amp celinoid on an put it to key power if you dont want to take a chance on leaving it on..
If you got usb on the inverter it's probably separate from the modified sinewave anyway. Can charge your tablet or phones makes no difference I would guess.
