Fw: Another "NO-GO" Load for the Trace Sinewave [RE-wrenches]

[Todd Cory, Mt. Shasta Energy Services]

One finicky load for me has been my high tech, temperature controlled,
soldering iron. I could never get it to work on a SW, so I had to carry my
old "wood burning" tool from back in high school. The Outback FX inverters
power it up, no problem. I suspect your stapler will behave in a similar
fashion on an FX.
