Hello All, I purchased the Xantrex Freedom 2000 inverter and need to arrange for the install. I would like to hear from anyone who has installed this type of inverter or has suggestions for installation.
I understand from some of the research I've done that locating the inverter close to the house battery is ideal, however, it appears the closest I can get is in a cabinet I'm building in the front lounge area behind the drivers seat, this makes it approximately 10' from the battery. My current set-up is one 12V deep cycle battery located in the front right side compartment. 1975 Royale.
1) what are my options as far as cable, with the distance I require is #4-0 cable my best option?
2) is the rear of the coach an option or will this require a complete reconfigure of the existing house wiring?
3) should I replace the one 12V battery for two 6V wired in series?
I'm clearly new at this and as always appreciate your helpful advice, what did you do, what should I not do, anything else you care to suggest?
Regards,
Mike
