    Do you have any recommendations on any aftermarket high quality alternators? I have a lot of accessories and I want my accessories to run to a 12 volt battery that I hooked up in the back with a charger on top of the second inverter I have.

      That is outside my realm of expertise. I only run small loads so I have no experience with larger inverters or alternators.

    I want to install 120amp amplifier to my 2023 hybrid, but i dont want to use rhe same terminal as you. Do you have any instructions/guides how to connect it straight to the battery terminal?

    Why didn’t you just use the 12v socket that’s already in the cargo area for the inverter? That’s what I do and I don’t need to have it exposed all the time.

      @@bradsechrist9746 that socket uses wiring that can't safely handle the loads that I run with my inverter. On top of the fire hazard, it's much easier to blow a fuse in the fuse box if I'm using that wiring path.

    how it is going so far? any issues? as you know the 12v battery is integrated Li battery , so i don't know if it is safe or no
    can you share your experience ?

      No issues. The only issue I could see happening is trying to pull a load that overheats whatever gauge wiring someone uses. I'm probably going to run 8ga instead of 10 just to be on the safe side for future use.

      so do you keeps car running while you are using the inverter ?
      did you try to run a kettle or something on it ?

      @@khalidaboelmagd6993 it's best to keep it running but I've used it for very small loads with the car off. I haven't tried anything like a kettle but that's going to require an inverter that can handle a higher watt/amp draw.

    Do you know how large of an inverter you can install?

    • @RivermanTV-

      I'm not sure tbh. If you do end up going with a more powerful inverter, you need to make sure you use a heavier wire gauge that can handle the increased load.
