Expert Answers about RV Inverters


  • Availability Of Furrion Pure Sine Wave Inverter Over 1000 Watts
  • You are correct that the Furrion RV Refrigerator # FCR14ACBQASS does require a Furrion Inverter to be used or the warranty will be voided. At this time the only inverter Furrion offers is the Furrion Pure Sine Wave Inverter - 1,000 Watts - Deck Mount - 12V # FIVBDP10A. If the Furrion appliances in your 2021 Grand Design Transcend Xplor already run on DC power, they will not require the Inverter as it is for converting the DC power from your RV batteries to AC for certain appliances.

  • Inverter to Use with Go Power Solar Flex Charging System with MPPT Solar Controller # 34275012
  • The wattage output of the Go Power Solar Flex Charging System with MPPT Solar Controller # 34275012 is 550 watts so for an inverter that would handle that and work really well we have the Power Inverter part # WC3720 which is rated for up to 1,000 watts. We don't carry deep cycle batteries but the Group 27 batteries are a really great option for RV applications like yours and would work well with this setup as well.

  • Advantages to Using Go Power Automatic Transfer Switch # 34270278
  • The advantage or pro, of having a converter/charger in one unit, such as the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini Converter/Smart Charger, # PD4045KA is having it all in one package; you know that all subcomponents are matched to function with each other. The way the Go Power Inverter, # 34278156 that you linked to works is to be connected to your RV's AC battery bank providing 12 Volt DC output. That battery bank is charged from the AC input of the shore power connection, or solar, or generator....

  • What Options Are There For Operating A Refrigerator In RV While Driving?
  • We do have a few options of 12 Volt DC refrigerators, see the link below. If you want something with a freezer included, I suggest the Everchill RV Refrigerator w/ Freezer Drawer, # WAY44FR. This is a 12V, 17 cubic foot stainless steel refrigerator with French doors and the freezer on the bottom, very similar to many contemporary residential models. This will operate directly from the fuly charge battery bank in your 5th wheel and then operate from shore power when plugged through the...

  • What Type of Power Does the 25" x 7-1/4" Heater Pad with Thermostat for RVs # 277-000163 Run On
  • The 25" x 7-1/4" Heater Pad with Thermostat for RVs # 277-000163 will only produce heat when attached to a power source. If you disconnected the power source it would turn off. 12 volts is DC power though. You would need an inverter if you wanted to convert it to AC power.

  • 12 Propane Pigtail
  • If you have a 1/4 Inch - Male NPT, I suggest the # 100473-12. If you have a 1/4 Inch - MIF, then I suggest # 100833-12. If you have brass fittings in the inlets on the regulator then you most likely have the inverted flare.

  • Go Power Recommendations for Portable Systems
  • The Go Power Solar Cable Entry Plate 34273841REVA with MC4 connections, as installed by RV builders, is generally installed on the roof. If this is the situation with yours then this will not provide a quick disconnect for you unless you use an MC4 to SAE for creating a quick disconnect. The MC4 entry plate is intended to make connections for permanent/semi permanent solar panels affixed to the roof. I suggest the Go Power Portable Solar System with Digital Solar Controller and 200...

  • What Power Source Does the Furrion FCR14ACBQABL Refrigerator Require
  • No. The Furrion RV Refrigerator # FCR14ACBQABL does not operate off of propane gas power, only a 120v AC power feed. Using this fridge in your trailer/RV would require that you have a power inverter on board since it will not function off of 12v battery power. Unfortunately we do not currently offer any refrigerators that can be powered by propane gas. If you're looking for a refrigerator that will operate off of a 12v power source instead of a 110/120v AC source, the Everchill # 324-000119...

  • Availability of Pigtail Hose Without Back-Check
  • We do have the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay Propane Fill Hose # 100019-24 which doesn't have a back-check. This pigtail has a POL fitting on one end and then a 1/4" male inverted flare on the end that connects to your regulator so if you already have an adapter in the regulator you'll need to remove it to use this pigtail. Please note that when used as part of a dual-cylinder setup, this will not be RVIA compliant. The adapter fitting # 204120-MBS would need to be purchased (which has the back-check)...

  • Propane Pigtail Hose with ACME/Type 1 Fitting
  • The Blackstone 28-Inch Griddle Cooking Station appears to use a round plastic knob tank fitting known as a Type 1 (also called an ACME) as found on home gas grills. The linked article shows you this and all other types of propane fittings. The other linked page displays all propane pigtail hoses with that have the Type 1/ACME tank fitting. All of these hoses have either a 1/4-inch MIF (male inverted flare) or a 1/4-inch MPT (male pipe thread) connector on the other end.

  • Availability of Propane Hoses and Fittings to Transfer Propane Between Tanks
  • I suggest you review the linked page that shows all of our propane-related parts. If you are wanting a hose you can click on that category. Without knowing the particular fittings on your two tanks I can't guarantee we'll have the specific hose you need but you can click on the filters on the page to select the appropriate length and fittings. For example, Camco offers their 60-inch supply hose that has an ACME nut on one end and a male inverted flare on the other. Part # CAM59825 is a...

  • Recommended 6 Panel Solar System Upgrade for 2019 Thor Outlaw
  • You were on the right track; the Go Power Solar AE-6 All Electric System # 342-75011 is the perfect upgrade for your 2019 Thor Outlaw. This is a 6 panel solar system that can provide up to 1140w of power and can work with 12v or 24v systems; you may need to change the configuration of your battery wiring if it is wired for 6v, but it is ideal for keeping a battery bank charged and powering your coach. This does come with 2 MPPT controllers that will prevent harmful overcharging and the...

  • Is There a Difference Between Camco and MB Sturgis Propane Quick Disconnect Kit
  • There really isn't a significant difference between the MB Sturgis Quick Disconnect Kit part # 104052-401132 and the Camco # CAM59853 as they both perform the same function. We do have the MB Sturgis Quick Disconnect Propane Adapter part # 401132-MBS which has a male 1/4" NPT model 250 quick-disconnect fitting but you would need to use an adapter to convert the male 1/4" NPT to a male 3/8" inverted flare which we do not have. I'd recommend having the female end on the propane accessory...

  • Can 30 Amp Circuits On a Generator Be Combined For a 50 Amp RV Camper Plug?
  • Unfortunately, you are not able to combine different circuits on a single generator so the device you are searching for does not exist. If you were combining multiple generators like our Champion # CH99FR they are able to be combined using the included Parallel Kit # CH84FR to get up to a 50 amp circuit. I do not see that Predator offers a parallel kit for your 9500 watt generator.

  • Battery Charger Recommendation for 4 Battery Bank on RV
  • The best charger solution would be the NOCO GENPRO part # NOC84FR which was designed to charge a battery bank of up to 4 batteries like what you have. This is a 40 amp charger that can put a 10 amp charge per bank for each battery. It has charge/health indicators for each battery too so you'll know exactly how each battery is doing.
