Greetings Carl, Ray and anyone else interested,
  I presently own a Maytag Neptune and run it off of an Outback 
FX2024. I bought it the Neptune used but in immaculate condition and 
the seller said the only reason she did not approve of it was because 
it did not get her whites white enough. From the beginning of my 
ownership with the unit it stops at the spin cycle a good 6 out of 7 
wash cycles. After viewing some of the issues reported with other 
inverters I now wonder if the issue is with the inverter and not the 
washer itself. The FX2024 is a very early serial # but Outback 
graciously upgraded it quite some time ago at no charge and until now 
I have known no problems. So, from now on I'll start writing down 
pertinent info and see if I can track it to a certain time of day, 
battery voltage etc. You'll be the first to know if I can link it to 
any specific scenario.
