Another legacy item I would like to find a value for is a 15 year old
VFX 3524 off grid inverter. The AC voltage fluctuates a bit, so maybe it
could use another control board.  The cover plate (valve cover) is
missing. Otherwise it works. 

I did an upgrade on a system and offered to buy the old components, but
have little idea what this old Outback is worth.
