I just installed a pair of IG Plus V 7.5s, and they seem really good so
far. <br><br>
My only complaint is the documentation. It seems to have been
written by people who had no clue concerning the simple steps that needed
to be taken to install and start up the machines, and whose first
language was other than English. (So many instructions are like that
these days). <br><br>
It looked like the "authors" found all the miscellaneous
information they could and pasted it into the manual until it got up to
172 pages. Lots of warnings and information on how to mount to various
surfaces. The mounting description consisted of some vague drawings
of screwdrivers turning and the word click.<br><br>
Fortunately tech support is excellent. It would have been easier to
follow my instincts for mounting and commissioning. If all else
fails, read the directions! <font size=4><b>: - )<br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">I foresee some more failures in
the IG plus, the details of which I will not share here, but you can ask
me off-list if you like. I will say that the IG plus has a trifling
bracket design with rectangle holes that is not really strong enough to
hold the inverter up on its own, and does not lend itself well to a
perfect mating of the 2 sections of the inverter. If you think you would
like to lag up a stud on the middle row, the bracket will deform, causing
you to add more anchors just to hold the thing up in the corners. And if
you miss a pilot hole by a 1/4 inch or whatever, and you decide to try
and drill out the hole to give you some play, go to your vise, cause the
rectangle holes will put your un-sprained wrists in jeopardy. The plus
has a way better dc terminal, but you need to get fuses, and the ac
terminal is the same horrible white plastic one from the IG.<br>
Also, there are removable vent clean outs on the right side of the IG
plus, so it is difficult to leave access in some cases, and you might
have to remove the power stage to clean them if you run a pipe there.
