I have 10 panels at 245 watt. Have 5 sun-g 600 inverters. 1 inverter for 2 panels. Had two inverters quit working after about 60 days. Normal?

Not for me so far I run 2@ 285 watt and they have been working for over a year now . Make sure you ground your equipment properly .

NOT SURE ,, BUT ITS SOUND LIKE you have the right amount connected.. to you inverters. i think they are faulty inverters truly i think they are not ment to last a long long time.. i may be wrong.. because i have the same inverter and its still working bin 3 month.. will have to see how long they last..

Do you check the voltage? some inverters use max 30Vdc and another of 60Vdc check the specification maybe 2 are different. for this reason will be down. I install many of these inverters and continue working

That option works on my 2000 watt inverter but I do not use it. So many new appliances will not work unless they have power available all the time to run the internal controllers. I noticed however that if I turned on a load that it would not start right away you had to wait until the inverter decided it was time to start. Because of my experience on the 2000 watt inverter it was never tried on the 3000 watt inverter.

The inverter should handle the start up spike just fine and the normal pumping will not be a problem. You might end up being a bit lean on your energy production with just one solar panel, depending on your energy draw.

if you have problems at the start, i am sure amazon will back you. i used my inverter for 3 days straight with no problems and am saving it for emergencys now, you should call power bright (company) talk to them and feel them out. for the money it is a great buy, but do not overload it drawing too much power. it has a fan built in, if it is running warm, ok, but if it is hot, let cool and try reducing load so it does not get hot. if it is running hot it will burn out in time. electronics can run cool or warm, if hot somethings wrong.

I've been using mine for an off-grid house for a little over 2 years now with no problems. We're running normal loads (fridge, computers, internet, etc) all the time, and I've even run a big miter saw off of this inverter a few times with no problems.

Charger? I have 245 watt of panels to a BZ MPPT 250 solar Controller, to three batteries in series.To inverter.

Yes, I use that size panel too, inverter works good. Any panel voltage should not exceed 60 volts, watts should be well under 600 watts, so no more than 2 of those panels

You should look at running 2 - possible 3 100 watt panels, if an upgrade for future look at 10 gauge panel wire, it seems your running 12 volt, but your inverter and charger will depend. I've got a 40 amp 12/24 charger but batteries will run at 12 bought in a kit with 6 100 watt panels but told to only run 5 as my 60 amp also takes 1600 watts if at 24, but running at 12 so 800 watts mix up and I was sent a 12 both are mppt, you can probably run 5-6 100 watts if you have 2/ 25 amps combined, if not mppt they will keep charging but at a lower rate will destroy your batteries if not in use all the time, go with 10 gauge wire you will be happier.

First thing to note is that this particular "2500" Watt inverter is actually 2500 4 120v A.C. which gives you about 600 Watts per plug with no factory way to bridge it to one of the 4 plugs. Also before you buy this thing read some reviews about if you get a lemon which is common. I already decided against this inverter and it was bought for me as a present from my Sister. The inverter died in 7 weeks and after a lot of hassle we received a RMA which was sent off the end of October with zero return and zero response from the company. Do yourself a favor and find a better brand. It's worth a hundred bucks just to avoid this very cheap device. To answer your question. As long as your blanket doesn't exceed 600 Watts max your setup will work but you didn't state your amp hour total so you may only get about 2-4 hours of use before you flatten your charge. Best of luck!

I used mine only a couple times to power around 150 watts of notebook PC and monitor and this inverter failed after one year. I can't recommend it for any reason.

this inverter is a under powered inverter. go with a aims inverter!! I picked up a pure sine wave aims inverter and have been loving it.

You should have no problems with your setup.The Sun-600G starts working when it detects 22V.I have 3 units working without any issues for a year already.Good luck with your project !

Offhand, I would say the cables from the batteries were too long and or too thin. So the voltage dropped too low at the inverter and caused it to think the batteries were low and shut down.

Inverter choosing is not only a money matter, it's also about consumption, and potential growth. You 95 watts solar X 5hr, is what we use on an average day harvest. Might run one tv for five or six hours. You loosing the solar charging war. your banking 2760 watts 1380 @ 50 percent harvesting 475 watt and when in full rv use you'll use a lot more than you harvest. Why not just but a couple cigarette lighter 150w or 300w inverters?

I have had this unit for almost a year now! Works flawless with my two 250 watt Kyrocera panels, ( mono crystalline ) 12volt. Hope this helps u

I cannot speak to the inverter issue but if outputs 60hz 1120v current it should work fine. The power setting are extremely consistent if set on temperature they are within two to three degrees of the indicated temperature almost always on the high side(i.e. if set at 80 degrees F the actual temp with my unit will be 82 degrees. Overall it seems to be of high quality.

No, i never try. I always have a load on it, and if I turn things off it goes to a standby or power save mode automatically.My inverter have been running for more then 2 years now. With no problems so for.
