Inverters
Guys,
I have had two inverters, both died, the first one after a few years, the second did not last long at all.
Anyone recommend a low to medium-priced one that lasts ?
Just want to run laptop & camera battery chargers.
Thanks,

- LR Steel Bar & Lights, Cooper STT 245/70R17 on LR 17", ContiCrossContact UHP 255/60R18 on LR 18", Traxide/Optima Yellow Top, GME 3440 UHF, FrontRunner Roofrack.
Unit is a 300w,continuous, 500Watt peak as per the label, Actually 3 years old. Brand is Projecta.
One thing I do that may be different is to isolate the inverter from power except when in use, hence the switch beside it. This may help with long life.
It came from a supercheap store, I could not find exactly what I wanted at the time and thought it would do for a specific trip. I charge lights camera's etc from it when camping and travelling. As you can read it has some reasonable protection feature as well, I remeber it was "near " sine wave" output quality, ie an intermediate quality for an inverter, better than stepped but not pure.
