Hi Ray,


I have nothing but good things to say about Outback.  Not the least is good
customer service which I find Xantrex poorly lacking.

Feel free to contact me off site for more info.

PS The Outback is way quieter than the SW+

watt
> surge, 2,500 watt cont., 8 watt search mode, same old SW pyaramid wave

can't

> B.) The high surge is available at the cost of power quality. I think the

> C.) The big AC lugs and wiring room are great, and the way it butts right

> D.) The manual is actually pretty good, somebody put alot of homework into

> E.) Cost is good, I started pushing them instead of the DR series for my
