Comments on: RV Power Inverter Do’s & Don’ts http://RVTipOfTheDay.com/general-tips/rv-power-inverter-dos-donts/ A daily Tip Related to the RVing Lifestyle Thu, 02 Feb 2012 06:02:31 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Jon del Pozo http://RVTipOfTheDay.com/general-tips/rv-power-inverter-dos-donts//comment-page-1#comment-62 Jon del Pozo Thu, 30 Apr 2009 13:34:36 +0000 http://RVTipOfTheDay.com/?p=312#comment-62 Interesting and informative article. The Invertor / Convertor or what ever the thing is called in my motor home was in a outside large compartment and I was told that I could not put anything flameable into the compartment. (So what isn't?) After I got rained on while checking the batteries under the interior steps, I swapped the contents. Now the batteries are on a slide out in the old invertor compartment and the invertor is under the steps. I cut additional vents into the fiberglass compartemnt and covered them with HVAC screens. They are placed on the side and back of the compartment to aid in air flow. Didn't have to extend any cables but did add additional adel clamps ( insulated aircraft wiring clamps) to ensure things stayed in place. I like the idea of the batteries being on a slide out and easily checked and maintained. Thought this would be an idea for others. Jon Interesting and informative article.
