    Seems to be too many complaints after doing research. I get that things happen but when the ball gets dropped repeatedly maybe it’s time to review policy. As far as PM’s being private, only in name. Anything anyone posts in private should expect the chance of it getting repeated publicly. Maybe...

    Following all of this closely since I am in the market for building a system. I can’t comment one way or the other since I am new and have never purchased anything from them but it certainly makes one wonder.

    Hopefully they’ll get everything resolved for you. I do know if someone in a position of authority in a company comments in a public forum, they have to be aware of the issue. If they delegate having someone contact you and they don’t, then either the ball got dropped and that should be dealt...

  • Post in thread: Inverter power issue

    all my other accessories (aux lights, surface pro charger, siren, etc) still work fine, inverter has been installed for about 10 months now. I'm going to see if they will run it to the main battery. I never use it without the vehicle running so killing start power shouldn't be an issue.

    Got the truck re-wired today, should be the equivalent of 1/0. Appears to have fixed the issue as I ran 3 chargers with it at the same time and had no issues.

    Hi, new member here. My work vehicle is a 2020 Tahoe PPV with the aux battery that is connected to the main battery via an isolator relay while running. We have a 3000w inverter our shop installed and I think they wired it directly to the aux battery, looks to be around 1/0 or so. The issue I...

    Thanks for the info Justin, I've give that a try. Also forgot to mention, I can hold the engine rpm at 2000 and still get the low input alarm. I'll get my co-worker to hold it above idle and take measurements and also check VDC at the battery!

    i used a prop rod to hold the rpm around 1800 and no change on vdc

    just an update, i ran the truck to the shop and they replaced the aux battery and nothing changed. We checked everything again and are getting a huge loss over the length of the run. I also found out they only used 4GA when it calls for a minimum of 2. They are rewiring it next week and we shall...

    Well, it's a government use vehicle that gets used anywhere between 2 and 16 hours a day given whatever is happening on that day. It's a factory GM battery, the vehicle is a 2020 with 34k miles that I have been assigned for a full year yet so I don't know the history of the battery. The battery...

    yeah, these folks don't even like the Cloud... I checked the voltage at the battery and then at the inverter input and I'm losing .7 - .9 between the battery and the inverter and running at idle with no accessory draw, It's still on 12.8. I thought constant output from an alternator was 13.8 in...
