Thanks for the responses guys!
Kevin/Dave: I was planning to use stand-alone charger, but will look
into the charging characteristics of the Tripp inverter.
Dennis: Yes, 1.5KW is a lot of power. No need to run this much power
continuously, I was thinking of the start-up current on inductive loads,
wanted to have plenty of headroom to run the shop vac and portable power
tools. In any case, the duty cycle would be short.
The house 12V loads would be supplied by Delta-Q's new 1KW charger with
integral 48VDC converter. Not enough to invert for powering my AC loads.
Mike: I'll look into this product also.
Thanks again to you all! This forum is a great resource.
