Magnum makes very reliable, quality inverters and has the customer service to back it up. It's now our #1 seller for small systems and has replaced all our Outback inverter sales. Can't go wrong with Magnum Energy products.
If you choose Magnum, be sure to look at the ME-BMK for battery monitoring. It's low cost and accurate and the data is viewed on the Magnum ME-RC display panel.

I've been looking at the Magnum Energy MS series inverter/charger. I'd like to also use Magnum mini panel for the geny, DC loads, and AC loads. | | This is a fairly small system with a about 150w of lighting, maybe a vacuum and a toaster. They also have a water pump. I'd like any advice/previous experience with this brand and type of install. It seems like a nice little system, much better than the RV inverter with no OCP insight. Does this seem like overkill? I'm sure they would love to be able to power more AC loads if they could, so I don't think they mind a little larger system(inverter watts) | | Footnote, I used the Solmetric PV analyzer on the mis-matched module array today 2-unisolar modules and 2 mitsubishi modules, all in parallel. We ended up with around 318W 16V and 20A at about 960 watts per meter square. | | | | Jesse | | | Thanks as always, | | | Jesse | Sent from my iPad!!! | _______________________________________________ | List sponsored by Home Power magazine | | List Address: [email protected] | | Options & settings: | http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org | | List-Archive: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/pipermail/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org | | List rules & etiquette: | www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm | | Check out participant bios: | www.members.re-wrenches.org | | _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Home Power magazine List Address: [email protected] Options & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/pipermail/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
