Power inverter mounting

[Ontario Outlaw]

Why would it matter which way this gets mounted?

 

[Mike]

its upside down or something, cause i can't read it

 

[Ontario Outlaw]

What’s upside down?

 

[Rigjockey]

Try using the English directions. The French directions are all backwards.

 

[Ontario Outlaw]

Better?

 

[Mike]

Perfect, mount the Inverter pointing straight up, just like the picture shows.

 

[Ontario Outlaw]

That’s horizontal.

[Mike]

That’s horizontal.

Dommkopf

No, it's English. you posted it in Horizontal the first time.

 

[Ontario Outlaw]

No, it's English. you posted it in Horizontal the first time.

Did you read it this time?

Try not to focus on the pitchers

 

[Mike]

Yes, and you can mount it any way you want. It's only telling you this so you can view the lights and crap, which seems like common sense to me. The position has not impact on it's operation.

 

[Ontario Outlaw]

Why didn’t you say that the first time

 

[Mike]

Why didn’t you say that the first time

because you had it posted in that crazy horizontal language and I couldn't read it.

Have you ever heard of Samlex Power inverters?

 

[Mike]

Have you ever heard of Samlex Power inverters?

Yes, never used one though. I hear they are a good choice if you want a pure sine wave inverter.

 

[Ontario Outlaw]

They make both kinds, I believe. Modified and pure. I ordered in a 2000 watt continuous pure sine wave one


If it’s legit I’m hoping I can swing a laser instead of ink jet

I got a circuit breaker at Napa while I was there

 

[Ontario Outlaw]

That’s a little crude but the fucking things in. Still need to heat shrink the cables and mount the circuit breaker. But that’ll have to wait until I’m back at the shop

I have a fridge and microwave again. And a printer. Shop vac.

Some asshole should’ve left the fridge door open a crack.
Ppppphhhheeeeewwww

 

[Ontario Outlaw]

The heck is that?

When you wall mount it, you have to put it horizontal so heat transfer can happen properly and it can cool off. Your fan will run with less stress, your cooling fins won’t fill with as much dirt and you won’t fry the inner circuitry.

You should have that breaker in the battery box or in line from the battery before it passes through anything metal so if the wire rubs a hole you don’t burn down the fucking truck.
