💡 Soft Start Your Inverter | Avoid Mistakes & Ensure Safety When Pre-Charging Using a Light Bulb!

🔌 Soft Start Your Inverter Safely! Learn how to avoid dangerous mistakes and ensure safety when pre-charging your inverter using a Light Bulb! 💡
In this video, we break from the typical method of using a resistor to pre-charge the capacitors in our inverter. Instead, we choose to use a light bulb! The incandescent bulb offers a safer alternative than a resistor in the event that your system has a short circuit (for example, if you've wired your inverter in reverse polarity). Instead of sending a puff of smoke from your resistor, the bulb simply lights up to notify you that something has gone wrong!
In this video we have a system set up using an SOK 48V100-NCBT battery and a 48V Victron Quattro 10K inverter, and we'll be using both a 10W 10 Ohm resistor and a 48V 40W incandescent light bulb as resistors to pre-charge/soft-start the inverter.
🔔 Please Note: This technique is compatible with incandescent light bulbs only... It won't work very well with an LED bulb.
