Problem solved

[RUGER]

Thanks again @woodyard !!

I'm not even bleeding that much.
Take longer to put everything up than it did to mount it.
Had to put it in my storage box and run the wires to the battery compartment.
Didn't explode when I plugged it in either !!

Pool noodle and lots of electrical tape. Shouldn't ever move or get cut.

What it took.

It's upside down; it will suck the juice out of your batteries.

 

[woodyard]

i found the owners manual, not that you really need one.

 

[mike243]

You need to raise it up to the top and put it sideways before the water gets into the dry box just saying

lol, probably current only runs down hill.

 

[WTM]

are you going to charge a LFP battery with that?

What is a LFP battery?

 

[WTM]

What is a LFP battery?

lithium iron phosphate

 

[RUGER]

lithium iron phosphate

No just a regular 12 volt battery.

Hey pops they sell rubber grommets all day long at Harbor freight

Yeah I figure they do but I don't like to stop once I start something.
Plus the pool noodle and tape was alot closer.

It's my goal to someday own a boat that's nice enough to actually have one of them fancy built in chargers.

Nice work Ruger. Not blowing up is a good first step.

k just looking out for you.

 

[RUGER]

Lord knows I need someone to.

Thats what i came here to say !!! LOL

Looks like you have everything out but the chainsaw.

Be careful to check if it's a modified sine wave inverter versus pure sine wave. It doesn't make an immediate difference but can cause damage in the long run.

Is this English?

lol sine wave anything on a dc system will burn the he double ll out of ldo converters, cpu's, etc.

albeit a lot of folks are unwittingly slowly killing their equipment with these high ripple voltage converters they be powering their graphs.

If you're interested in the damages that modified sine waves can cause over long periods versus pure sine waves Google it. There are engineers who have devoted their entire careers to studying this, and can describe it in a much more competent manner than I can If you are running any sensitive electronics, stay the hell away from modified sine. Fans even have a severely reduced lifecyle. Pretty much every high quality inverter that is running an entire home i or business is pure sine. Modified signs are what you see for sale at cheap truck stops. Pure sine is about 2x as much. To keep it in simple terms, a modified sine wave is like choppy water, a pure sine wave is like a smooth flow of current.

In certain situations, the modified sign can actually be slowly burning up electronics, or causing unusable RF static on a boat, as well as all types of unwanted interference
