    Does anyone have a good recommendation for a power inverter?

    Could you give the brand name and how big would be a good way to go?

    Thank you

    What are you looking to run with one? I have the Power Drive 1500 watt one you can get from just about any t/s. Powers my fridge, tv, laptop, crockpot and coffee pot.

    I would be looking to run pretty much what you have listed here. There are just so many of them out there and not sure what is needed and I am not an electrician so not sure how to figure out the size of what is needed either. I would rather spend a little bit more and be in the big side then not to have enough for what I need.

    Thank you

    I was looking at this one Cobra 2500 Watt/5000 Watt Surge Power Inverter
    cpi2575 but I think that 3500 would be bigger.
