[C320-list] How to add a Microwave?

Mon Apr 17 19:52:13 PDT 2006

When I used it for the microwave back then yes, now instead of running the engine I would have my Honda 2000 gen set running.

If you get nothing else for the boat, get the Honda unit, it's worth every penny you might pay for it. Given a choice I would buy the gen set instead of the inverter....you can always run a microwave with the gen set running along with other eqpt...I think the gen set gives you a lot more flexibility...

Orlando,
For such high inverter draw, do you always run the engine during use?
