I swiped the inverter out of the van and installed it in the truck. As you can see, I am running out of places to mount things.

The wiring routes from an inline fuse at the batteries, through the right fender, into the door alongside the speaker wires, then out through the door panel to the unit.

It is powered by whichever battery is selected at the time. If one goes stone dead, I can switch over to the other and start the truck to charge them back up at 94 amps. Smile

Not much to look at, but it is out of the passenger's way, yet easy to access when parked. Not ideal, but cab space is at a premium.

Those come in very handy. I have one mounted up in the WJ. Only a 350 watt inverter, but it charges our laptops and such with no problems.

edit: just noticed your speaker and my first thoughts were "wow, it's a bulldog!" Smile

I like inverters. I also have an 800 in the F-250 and one in the Jeep. Never know when you need some house power! That will come in handy on your AZ trip.

Mark, is it mounted high enough to keep it out of water? I have seen water pretty high in the cab before! Cool I like it!

It will get wet if we get in deep water, but it is not critical like the ECU. Besides, this one has had yers of use and would not be a major loss.

I also carry a Xantrex X-power portable unit that we call the "Elctric Watermellon". That is actually my primary power source in camp.
