Final Update to what keeps tripping breaker

For those that had followed along on the provious thread I had last stated that it was finally determined that I had a bad inverter charger. well today I finally got it fixed, it was a bad control board in the inverter. $168.00 for parts and $300 for labor but that included two hours driving time for the service tech to come to me and do all work at my house. I dodged a bullet in that I didn't have to buy a new inverter.

The service guy as well as Magnum Energy said that the inverter/charger I have (Magnum 3112) was the best, most heavy duty charger/inverter that Magnum had ever built, so that made me feel pretty good.

All in all a $500.00 bill, but it could hav ebeen SOOOO much worse and everything works great. If you are ever in eastern NC and have an electrical issue this guy is the man. I won't list him on here as i don't know if I can. But I will certainly give his info through email or IM if anyone needs it. He also rebuilds inverter/chargers if you ship them to him.

Not bad considering I just spent that amount on a trip to Quartzsite and I don't even have a RV yet
