Also uncertain if still available or not but years ago the first Cybo inverters I purchased were also intended for 36v nominal battery banks. Perhaps George and the team still offer that model. It\u2019s obviously a different type of architecture and I didn\u2019t have any luck with the 4 amp 36v charger on the inverter\u2019s AC output that was promoted but surely you could figure your means of charging with perhaps a Flexmax or similar. I had some issues with the hot water heater model but the off grid model consistently performed it\u2019s inverting function assuming there was a fan or some sort of resistive or inductive load to keep the inverter awake. The only other 36v inverter I can think of was the Heart Transverter which was a big loss for a few of us.<br>

Does anyone have any ideas on a good way to do something like this? The battery would need to be able to be unplugged of course (not under load I hope!) It's mostly DIY'ers trying to cobble together a solution for a small critical load panel for their home. <br>
