Which inverter

Have any of you installed an inverter?

I'm not quite sure what power consumption I need. In the short term I really only require 300W for laptop and phone charging but longer term I'd like to be able to run a fridge and lighting etc.

I'm interested in what setup people have gone for, which kit they recommend and any tips on where to locate it (I was defaulting to the cubby box but thought that it might get a bit hot.

Thoughts appreciated One that started out as a 2.4 TDCi 110 XS

Don`t bother with them, buy a 12v power supply for your laptop and phone. Buy an Engel or National Luna fridge as they draw very little current, and for lighting buy some 12v led work lights

Inverters will drain your battery very fast especially if your still using the std battery

That's sound advice - I can charge my phone from my laptop anyway.

Perhaps I'll wait until I get a second battery set up.
