[RE-wrenches] Off grid

[August Goers]

Bill,



I don't know about Samlex. We have a small offgrid system with an Outback
GFX1424 1.4 kW inverter and FM80-150VDC charge controller. There were some
issues early on with incompatible LED dimmer switches that apparently fried
the Outback inverter board, so that was replaced under warranty. We’ve only
had the system in for ~6 months so I can’t talk about long term
reliability.

Cheers,



August

Off-gridders,



             I've got a customer that wants to run a few very small loads
(less than 200 watts) but also a 20 year old washing machine (vertical
axis).  Any personal experiences with inverters smaller than the basic
outback, Xantrex, trace, transformer type inverters?  I'm hoping to be able
to run it with a 1500-2000 watt Samlex.  Clue me in please.



Thanks,



Bill
