The Renogy Inverters come with a remote that allows you to turn the inverter on without having to be at the actual unit. I queried how that would stop a fan from working properly, and got a vague response about it squashing the internals, which is a complete and utter cop out. I bought the 3000W version of this unit and I’m very pleased with the quality. Works great and has a solid construction. The 3kW unit is quite large so take that into account. The remote switch has a long cable which makes this a nice added touch. I pushed a bit harder, and was told “The technical department indicates that vertical mounting may cause the inverter to malfunction due to gravity affecting the internal components, not just the fan.” Fair enough, its not installed as per their instructions, but what’s the chances that this would cause a fan not to operate properly, or other issues? There’s plenty of air flow around it, and its not getting warm, so I feel its a bit of a fob off, but it is what it is. Renogy are saying because its mounted like this, it can’t get rid of heat, and can squash the internals. Yeah, right.

We’ve been punishing ours for a number of months now, and I know plenty of people who’ve been using theirs for much longer with no issues at all. We’ve been using our induction extensively in the Reconn R2 Great instructions, information and kitFor increased efficiency, consider pairing our products with Renogy's lithium batteries available here. Replacing the converter with a charger inverter can be an effective way to improve your RV solar system, which can help you save energy and also protect your system from unforeseen spikes in voltage. This is a monster of Inverter, I used this to run my Amateur Radio Station(Ham Radio) and accessories. I need to add a second battery for those cloudy days but other than this Renogy recommends 2 (two) 170-ah batteries are dead on! Get this if you want to have reserve power for your 120v needs and with its 6000 watts surge this can run a lot of gear or equipment. specifically all wiring is behind the end face making this a very clean looking set up. I will have to see how it works for me and my application but that is why I bought from a trusted company like Renogy.

Installed in time to use on our 2 week road trip. Worked perfectly running everything/charging all our devices, and even would run our dometic penguin ii a/c. Installation was straight forward, but does take time to wire everything together. Remember, at 3000W, you are drawing nearly 250 amps. That’s a heap of power, and when your cables are too small you make heat, and ultimately create a fire risk if you aren’t careful. We had new cables made for both installations as the ones that they come with are questionable It doesn’t come with a fuse The perfect addition to any off-grid system, whether for a van or a cabin, the Renogy 3000W Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter acts as a DC to AC converter that allows you to power your household appliances. Unlike modified sine wave inverters, this 3000W inverter is a pure sine wave, capable of producing cleaner, smoother, and more reliable electricity to operate tools, fans, lights, and other electronics without interference. Many off-grid systems require a 12V solar inverter to power everyday electronics and this one includes multiple protections to help things run smoothly and safely. Inverters serve as the gateway between the photovoltaic system (your solar panels) and the devices and appliances drawing energy from your system. They turn the DC output collected from your solar panels into alternating current (AC), which is the standard used by all commercial appliances. You will need an inverter to convert DC to AC to power most appliances and devices in your home, from laptop to microwaves.Have been away haven't installed yet.Have other Renogy products which l have been very happy with hope this will be the same. Would highly recommend their products. Dollar for dollar, you won’t find another inverter on the market that is as cheap as the Renogy units, with the reputation that they have. Other than that, I’m really happy with our Renogy Inverters. I bought the second one as I was happy with the first, and wanted the ability to run some larger appliances off our Dmax if we needed to. I did my research and decided to add a a second inverter charger (renogy 3000w) just for the ac unit and 2 more batteries (200ah each) today i tested the system and its been 3.5 hours since I turned on the ac unit and everything else inside the van and only 1 bar out of 4 bars on the batteries has gone down.. im super happy with this electrical system and im already planning to get more vans done with the same system.. Works has it should here in the UK.Using to beat the energy prices here charge battery bank on cheap rate over night electric 75% cheaper over night.

EDIT: 6 months in, our 2000W inverter in the Dmax started to smell a bit like warm, smoky electronics, and despite not feeling warm externally at all and only drawing 1200W for our induction cooktop for about 10 minutes. Normally we’d only run it for a few minutes at a time, but on this occasion we were boiling potatoes, and it smelt pretty average. These folks are putting together exceptional solar power and off grid products. They are well engineered in exacting detail. Their prices are very competitive. They deliver on time as promised. What a wonderful company. I am grateful that they are in business. They are considered to be decent quality gear, and their pricing makes it incredible value. To put it into perspective, I paid more for my 400W Enerdrive Inverter than I did for the 3000W Renogy one! Good quality The AC priority switch function enables the inverter automatically switch from the battery (DC) to the mains (AC) and vice-vercer whenever the utility company takes/loses power! customer service isnt very helpful. my unit has a giant dent in the side and the corner is bent.sent them pics, they asked me to close the case and they would help. they didnt help. i guess its a good thing it actually works.I still use it, and sniff it often when its on, but I have a feeling it might not last. I did do another test, where I ran it at 1200W for 11 minutes, then 600W for another 10 minutes, and it smelt like warm electronics, but not too bad, so it might be OK; who knows.

This would say that their tech support wasn’t correct, but I didn’t push that hard and they’re sending a replacement. It’s a win from our end, and the other unit still seems to be working OK, so lets see how it goes. We’ve been using our 3000W Renogy Inverter full time at least 3 times a day for more than 100 days now, and will update this if anything goes wrong, or changes.

How much are the Renogy Inverters?

Pure sine wave inverters are capable of producing smooth, quiet, and reliable electricity to operate appliances and electronics without any interference. Like its name suggests, pure sine wave inverters produce current in a pure sine wave shape. Renogy sells a range of pure sine wave inverters of varying capacities to fit your solar installation and energy needs.Renogy solar panel inverters also provide overload protection for both DC input and AC output to prevent damage to the components and the unit. Have installed 3 of these puppies now and extremely happy with them. Over the years I’ve tried different suppliers and brands and the Renogy ones are bullet proof. Well built and easily power my off grid house. They take spikes in electrical start up easily, unlike others. The 3000w units give plenty of headway to 6000w peak. Great units and appreciate the quality and service. I managed to get this on deal but even on full price I have heard that Renogy are a good quality product Pure sine wave inverters are capable of producing smooth, quiet, and reliable electricity to operate appliances and electronics without any interference. Like its name suggests, pure sine wave inverters produce current in a pure sine wave shape. Renogy 12v to 240v inverters also provide overload protection for both DC input and AC output to prevent damage to the components and the unit. I’m surprised that the Renogy inverter kit doesn’t come with a fuse. You should always run one, and having to buy your own is a bit average when many other kits come with them. Again, its not the end of the world, but you need a fuse and will have to get one. The fan runs regardless of temperature
