    I’ve got the same inverter but 1000 watt. Think I could run that Harbor freight 1 x 30 belt sander off it? Ive got (2) 100 watt HQST panels going to (4) 12 Volt Marine deep cycle batteries. Nice set up!

      I should be ok, looks like its rated at 2 amps at 120 volts so thats 240 watts. the one issue you may have in inrush. the belt sanders a non capacitor start run motor if I recall right so depending on the temperament of the inverter it may be slow to start. a lot of inverters have a capacitor or compacter set up at the out put for a storage of energy in starting applications. I believe that's stated by the inverters start capacity on a 1000 watt inverter that may be 2000 watts but only for a fraction of a second depending on the load such as spinning up a flywheel will pull a lot of juice to get the momentum going. Id have to go tair one apart to get a better Idea of how that's set up, and perhaps someone can chime in thats more knowledgeable. I will say I have far beter luck running the pure sine wave inverters over the squared or modified wave inverter when it comes to starting things like grinders saws or High in rush demand tools. there is a item called a soft start for ac units in use with generators that would help in that situation...
      but anyway... yeah it should work.

      @@gonorthoffgrid1786 in what order would you make your mods to the trailer if you had a do over?

      Ah well I whould do it just as I did. Gut it, insulation, walls, inner walls, flooring, cabinetry, wiring, plumming.
      Some may chose to do there wiring strictly in the walls. I prefer to do it for the most part all in an accessible way behind falls fronts , in the cabnetry and such but for the ceiling. Keeping the understanding to alow areas, pockets and reaceses for the future wirung as we go.
      The one thing that whould realy aid in building out the inside of the camper is to know your intended lay out. However with me I have a general idea and proceed to pull it out off where the sun dont shine as I go. Its anoying doing it this way somtimes, but things change as we go somtimes.
