  1. I met a guy that used a flame to find a leak on his BBQ 3 months after he found it. His eyelashes and most of his hair had grown back but one of eyebrows was missing and his nose, cheeks and forehead were spotted with dark brown skin. Luckily his glasses saved his eyes. Edit: I use soap/water but I've found a leak detector liquid works better because the bubbles hang around longer.
  2. Wanted to thank everyone for posting this information. I really appreciate it, Thank You JT
  3. Thanks Chad I've had a box of 120v switching breakers lying around for 10+ years.....I finally have a use for them. In out case we have a 300w (3w standby) and would adds a 3000w. The 300w so the family (Dad like his 60" TV) can watch a movie before going to bed. I had the thought of using a battery switch set up as Inverter 1 - OFF - Inverter 2 with the output from both inverters feeding the 110v panel. The feed from both inverters would be live when there is any 110v in the trailer. The panel in ours is up in a bedroom cabinet so switching circuits on and off would be O.K. What I like about the system you designed is one doesn't have to remember to turn breakers on/off. Our PD transfer switch hums. Tried to tighten things up to no avail. I assumed the AC (wish it was DC) coil that is energized to keep the contact closed. What switch are you using? Once again I really appreciated all the information you posted, Thank You
  4. Hi You put allot of though into this system. I like the idea of the second inverter. I'd like to ask 2 questions. Was throwing the breakers in the panel to isolate the fridge a consideration? On standby there is a 1.2A @ 12v difference between the standby draw of the 1012 and the 3012. If my (old) brain recalls correctly you have a transfer switch between the 2 inverters that will draw power? When designing a system for myself I'm wondering how closely I should pay attention to ghost loads. Thank You
