He was looking to power a few plasma TV's, computer, and other devices. We decided on a 3000 watt true sine wave power inverter setup for his installation. This would give him plenty of power and also keep his devices running on a true sine wave AC power source. He wanted the inverter to kick out of circuit automatically when the generator came on. So we added a transfer switch to his setup. Below you will find a complete list of the items he ordered for his house boat: ]]> http://blog.outsidesupply.com/marine/marine-power-inverter-application/customer-adds-inverter-to-80-foot-house-boat.html http://blog.outsidesupply.com/marine/marine-power-inverter-application/customer-adds-inverter-to-80-foot-house-boat.html Marine Power inverter Application boat generator house boat houseboat inverter plasma tv pure sine wave power inverter transfer switch Sun, 25 May 2008 22:20:37 -0600 There are several types of boats out there but I had a customer with a boat I think I would absolutely love to own and travel in. He purchased a boat about 20 years ago to travel up and down the intracoastal waterway and a few rivers. This boat has a small cabin aft, a galley, and a head. The boat is about 35 feet and not really fancy. He called Outside Supply the other day looking for a power inverter to replace a unit that he had purchased only a year before. The thing had already been warrantied twice and gave him quite a bit of trouble. It is not a large inverter, he only uses his inverter on the boat to run a TV and a laptop when the generator is not running or when he doesn't have shore power. ]]> http://blog.outsidesupply.com/marine/marine-power-inverter/boat-power-inverter.html http://blog.outsidesupply.com/marine/marine-power-inverter/boat-power-inverter.html Marine Power Inverter boat inverter sine wave power inverter Mon, 01 Oct 2007 21:40:50 -0600 OutsideSupply.com customer recently wanted to purchase an inverter for his houseboat/ Reserch boat. Seems as he was doing water quality testing using his house boat as a marine operations platform. He wanted a reliable, powerful, and clean inverter to power several computers and a couple of pieces of test equipment. He also wanted to be able to run their microwave and coffee pot if needed.

A J-22 is not a very large sail boat, but they are pretty fast boats in heavy weather. This customer wants to keep his boat light for racing but would like an inverter charger. He only wants to watch TV and use his DVD player. http://blog.outsidesupply.com/marine/marine-power/small-marine-inverter-charger.html http://blog.outsidesupply.com/marine/marine-power/small-marine-inverter-charger.html Marine Power inverter charger marine inverter marine power inverter sailboat Sun, 25 Feb 2007 23:48:23 -0600 There are many applications for solar in the Marine environment. It is nice to harness the power from the sun. A solar panel can allow boaters to replenish some of the power drained from your battery.]]> http://blog.outsidesupply.com/marine/marine-solar/marine-solar-battery-maintainer-1.html http://blog.outsidesupply.com/marine/marine-solar/marine-solar-battery-maintainer-1.html Marine Solar battery charger solar battery maintainer marine solar marine solar panel solar Tue, 30 Jan 2007 17:52:16 -0600
