  • In this video, I show the eg4 3kw inverter. I give some tips on how to install it, as well as load test the unit. I think it's an awesome entry-level inverter. Expandable,very capable, and easy to install.

    Great video as usual. I can hardly wait to do a cart build with one of these. I liked the multiple load tests you did. Nice to see the reset after a fault, too. Keep up the good work!

    I have 2 of these and 4 48 volt 100 amp batteries 6200 watts solar panels I can run 2 chest freezers an upright freezer, a mini freezer, a refrigerator, a modern, 10000 btu window AC a 6000 btu window AC, and finally a 2 burner cooktop. I cut the power bill by 70%. Maybe $70 on average a month. . in Florida

    Well done you two. Mark it’s funny shows how much happier and vigorous you are that you were able to conceive. A child is a blessing and creates abundance when it has two loving parents. Wish all three of you lots of love and happiness

    Clear picture, clear sound, clear narration, very useful information. You have a new subscriber.

    Thanks Gavin, great video, my battery came at 55% and I did the initial charge with AC and the fan was cranking.

    Great video. I have a Growatt 3000 SPF I use in the same way but with a reliance manual transfer switch. It’s always a backup for two fridge circuits and a few lights circuits. If I need to power more during an outage I simply flip those from UTIL to Inverter for those circuits on the TS.

    "People don't know what dumb is" that's priceless. You just got a new sub. Great video, and lots of good information, I'm looking to get one come August for my off grid set up.

    These smaller but powerful All-In-One inverters are ideal for building portable power stations.

    The one answer that I have not seen on CZcams or in the manual is how do I precharge the inverter if I am not using EG4 batteries?? Love your presentation and looking forward to adding one of these fine inverters to our system

    I think that you will find that during bypass or inverting, the ground relay switches that grounds apart. you should be using the CASE ground for off grid. I am not certain as I don't own that particular model, but this is what I have been told
