Ridge Ryder Power Inverter Pure Sine Wave With Remote 1500W - Unboxing & Test Run - Supercheap Auto

Hi, does it need a fuse between inverter & battery?

[@MikesManCave]

There is none supplied, fuses are too small for the power draw a circuit breaker would be the ideal choice.

[@antony3678]

Yes you do. Ignore the advice not to. You always fit a fuse. You'd need to use at least 150A fuse for a 1500W inverter.

@@antony3678 🤣🤣 I guess you don’t know what a circuit breaker is, good luck finding a 150 A fuse 🤣🤣

[@markh6676]

don't you need to use a double pole GPO?

[@MikesManCave]

I literally show it to you in the video.

[@markh6676]

@@MikesManCave that's not a double pole GPO, google it.

How are you finding it a week and a half later? 😅

[@JMWConceptsTheOfficial]

Have you load tested it?

[@MikesManCave]

Exactly the same, it works as intended so far, but I don't think a week is a great indication of long term use.

[@MikesManCave]

If by load tested it you mean ran various appliances then yes. If you mean some fancy test using test equipment then no.

[@JMWConceptsTheOfficial]

Yeah I mean loading it up and basically seeing when it shuts off. Seeing it's limit. Nothing fancy here. 😅 Thanks for the response. I'm looking at one but I'm not sure if I'll need bigger for the coffee machine. 😅😅

@@JMWConceptsTheOfficial Just need to see what the rating of their coffee machine is, what brand and type is it? 1500W is a lot, I think Kings do a 3000 watt one, I do not use much 240V while camping, it's more of an emergency back up/convenience sort of thing for me.
