I haven't seen any comments above concerning the situation we have so I'll add my thoughts here.


We turn the inverter off when on shore power. Discovered that the refrigerator runs off the inverter all the time if it is on and that the batteries never get fully charged. Asked the dealer why and was told that was the way the transfer switch worked - if the inverter is providing 110 (or so) then it is providing the power to the refer pulling from the battery. The charging portion of the 'converter' isn't large, nor fancy, enough to sense the load and increase the charging rate of the batteries.
