My old ones are long gone.
The new one has a remote control panel to monitor voltages and will shutdown on its own if the voltage is low enough. I use a Maxwell engine start module to ensure the truck still starts.
I also have a 200 amp inline fuse .

how much is the maxwell start module ????
and the inline fuse goes in the wiring where at ? -
The fuse just hooks on first thing on the batteries before the inverter on the positive line.
Maxwell ESM I’ve paid as low as $799.
Last weekend I got a new one for $975, Canadian -
you have pics of the inline fuse mounted

Have been getting inverters from a place in Reno,NV.
Place is called the inverter store. This is the unit I have been getting for our trucks inverter -
I actually used a 1500 AVR 900 watt battery which is about as big as a school yard three ring binder to protect the computer stuff from the pure sine wave inverter. So if the truck drops out and dies etc the battery will provide room and time for a orderly shutdown. (Not to mention a everlasting power supply for your cell phone)
My current computers feed off a 20 amp T outlet at around 1400 watts continuous. There is no way I will run that monster in the big truck. Most I would do is a small old laptop running windows xp or something basic. Nothing fancy.
Anything else is either a fridge, coffee pot or what have you. Nothing else like playstations or video game stuff etc. -
