I agree with the wiring pure copper should be used. For gfci since you could just wire in a pony panel and run a gfci off of it. It would not really make a difference if they had one but the false advertisement needs to be dropped about it. The remote not matching up with the screen seems to happen with most inverters I’ve used before. So long as it’s close it’s not a problem. The ground is a big one but however you can still wire ground through the negative. This is normal for DC current. Besides that you should always use a capacitor in between your inverter and battery. If done properly it should increase the life of your device since it won’t have to work as hard and if your battery is full it will use the power from the capacitor first and charge it first so that your batteries don’t get touched as much when charging on solar during the day.

Also, there are high frequency and low frequency inverters. I read that if one wishes to power an induction load, like a pump motor, one should choose an inverter with low frequency. I'm not an electrician, so I can't say why. When in doubt, check! Another thing, for that size inverter, 3500w, one might consider a 24v system, or even better, a 48v system. It would run cooler, and the wires would not need to be so thick. You save money.

I agree that a 48v system would be more efficient. In some cases, people need a 12v system with this wattage, though. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻

Thank you for uploading this information about this inverter. I'm upset because I spent $300 on a Kreiger 2000W PSW unit and had it for only13 months and it just died. I never ever even used it on ANY household loads. I paired it with two Redodo 100AH batteries as an emergency backup 300W solar system and only turned it on weekly to charge up some power tool batteries. Went to charge up some batteries and it failed to turn on. I paid $60 to ship it to NC for warranty repair or replacement and now USPS has no clue where the heck it is! Glad I insured it for $300 but man this is so frustrating. Kreiger is supposed to be reliable from all the reviews too. I may just go with a Vevor 2500W unit.

My 3500 Edecoa is just like this. I grounded my unit to earth ground through my house wiring. I just pulled one fan guard screw out a few turns and used a stack on crimp terminal. Second, if you buy one of these, throw the cables in the trash. You will need heavy 4/0 copper. With properly crimped ring terminals. 3500 watts x 12 volts is 292 amps. If you're pulling max amperage, those cables can get stupid hot. Great video bro.

I was seriously considering trying this inverter for a single reason. The Renogy 3000 watt inverter had a struggle to start my 16,000 btu air conditioner on my boat because of the surge. In fact, I watched the whole video waiting to see just that, but it never came. I ended up buying a 4000 watt Giandel and it handles the load just fine and runs quite a bit cooler and quieter than the Renogy did. I also find it only draws about 5 watts when idle as well. I am very leary about specifications on just about anything these days because companies just flat out lie. I only purchased the Giandel because Will Prowse tried one and could not kill it. I also bought mine second hand for $250, so it was just a bit better of a deal. So far, 4 months into cruising in the yacht, it has not given me one bit of trouble and it so quite, I don't even know it's there. In fact, the cabinet cooling fans are most of what I hear.

Excellent and very thorough video, one of the most comprehensive explanations I have ever seen, and trust me, I have seen plenty of inverter videos. Very odd there is no grounding lug. Every inverter I’ve seen in videos, and the 3 in person has a lug. I’m still confused on if you need to ground it or not, because some say you need to ground to an RV, others say not.

Well made video Justin. If you can walk through a configuration to connect to a set of solar panel that's be great. Especially when the inverter works just at 12V while solar panels can easily connect in series to 100V or more to reduce DC current going through. With that in mind what's the best way to link up high voltage solar panels to 12V 3.5kW inverter in parallel to a 12V battery? Thank you so much

@JustinsProject 11 ай бұрын

I will have to work on doing a video on that sometime. You would need a charge controller in between the PV panels and the battery. Then the inverter would be connected to the battery. Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍

@creambuncreambun4511 11 ай бұрын

👍 much appreciate that Justin. Make sure I'm not affecting any of your plan. It was just an idea that's all. That idea comes from my earlier experience connecting four 24V PVs in series to make up 96V DC panel fed into a charge controller to step it down to 24V DC to fit my battery (in parallel to my 24V inverter). In one sunny day the battery was charged up and the BMS inside shut down the battery, leaving the inverter alone to be fed with whatever the charge controller pumps. That controller probably thought the inverter could accept much higher voltage so I watched the charging voltage shooted up to 50+ V. Some little explosion and smoke came out of that inverter in a few minutes time and I have to cut the power from the inverter immediately. From that point on I don't know what configuration to use, or should I add some voltage-monitor to cut off PV input. I understand I can connect the PVs all in parallel instead, but aside from there fact that more wire would be needed in that case, the panel voltages might not be high enough to pump into a 24V battery. That's still a mystery to me, but you don't need to answer that if it's not relevant to your plan. Thanks again for your video

That little plug-in tester is not checking for the inverter being staked to the physical ground. What it is looking for is being able to pass current between the hot pin to the earth pin in the socket. Some inverters do not actually have the earth pin at 0 volts relative to the live pin, nor the neutral pin. They are at 50% voltage. The plug-in tester may not think this is right and indicates a fault. This doesn't mean a GFCI will not detect an appliance internal earth fault when connected to this inverter. Plug-in a portable GFCI and use a plug-in GFCI tester to see if it can be tripped. A proper tester is really needed to ensure the GFCI will trip within the allowed time but they aren't cheap. There's a lot more that can be said about how GFCIs work and how to hook up this inverter and determining if the inverter is even suitable for such purpose but that's a little beyond this humble comment. That said, 300A through those gauge CCA wires? They are certainly going to get hot and the voltage drop across them isn't going to be all that flash either.

@JustinsProject 11 ай бұрын

Well said and I appreciate the comment. I love learning from you guys and getting comments that get my brain's gears spinning. Do you think a Klein Tools RT390 would be a good tool to thoroughly test the GFCI function on these types of units? Thank you for watching and commenting! 👍

@retrozmachine1189 11 ай бұрын

@@JustinsProjectLike you, I doubt the inverter itself has GFCI function built in especially when there isn't any test and reset buttons. I guess I wandered a bit there but it was more of an explanation of why your tester may be indicating the open earth pin, ie it may really be open, or it may be at 50% voltage. Whip the top off and take a look at the back of the sockets and check for a wire on the earth pin going to the board in the inverter. If there isn't one a plugin GFCI will not trip on a live to appliance chassis fault, nor will your tester trip the plug in GFCI, and you can be confident the inverter does not have GFCI function built in too. Keep in mind that with no earth pin and the inverter and/or the AC coming out of it not earthed it is technically impossible to get a shock from this situation anyway without a double fault - eg first fault takes one live or neutral to the physical earth and the second fault is you getting between the physical earth and the other wire, say wire to chassis of a tool you are holding, so current can flow across you.

Great stuff. What size inline fuse is needed between the battery and inverter?

@JustinsProject 6 ай бұрын

It really depends on your overall setup. The fuse size is usually stated in the manual and some inverters already have built in fuses/breakers. The rule of thumb that here would be “Continuous Watts / Battery Voltage times 1.25, for example a typical 1000W 12V inverter draws up around 83 continuous amps and we would add the 25% safety factor which comes out to 105 Amps, so we would recommend a 150A fuse. Thanks for watching and commenting

@chuckb7176 6 ай бұрын

Thanks! I bought 2/0 awg wire and in the middle of hooking up the wires with a 300A ANL inline fuse. I also got 250A fuses in case 300 was too much. I need 2 more 2/0 terminal ends to connect the cable from the inline fuse to the battery. I came to this conclusion from reading somewhere I saw online. Like I said I have to wait for these terminal ends to get here to finish the installation. So hopefully the 300A or 250A fuses isn’t too much.

@frankmaze1976 9 ай бұрын

I have that inverter and it's a workhorse, the fan rarely comes on and it burns about 7w at idle. I have the terminal block connected to my sub panel with 10awg Romex wire and 4/0 welding cables going to the batteries.

You have to have the inverter grounded for the GFCI to work. Sadly, Renogy phone support said in a camper you don’t but in researching, that’s incorrect.

The front plugs on the unit are rated at 15amps. 120v x 15amps = 1800watts max. But if you take into consideration the 80% rule, that outlet is 1440watts max. That's why the terminal block is there.

One thing for future reference with the tester though is I've never found an external GFCI tester that will trip a non grounded GFCI outlet. Note that a ground is not required for a GFCI outlet (non grounded GFCI are approved by nec). All a GFCI does is monitor for any differences between the hot and neutral and trips if they are imbalanced

I don't understand why people don't open these inverters up and see how they are really made? Many of them are using the case for a heat sink etc. If you are going to do a review why not go the whole way as there are so many fake inverters out there,

Bet you can't start and run a 3,500 Watt 5 HP motor loads with this cheap lightweight inverter.

I would test it if I had a 5HP on hand. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻

I like the video but I just got one of these and there are no markings on the hardwired terminal for positive neutral ground. I'm trying to hardwire my RV plug into this now 😤

You are right. That should be clearly marked. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻
