No power in bedroom

Wife was using her hair dryer and blew a circuit or GFI. I have no power to the outlets in the bedroom and no power the main TV and everything in the entertainment cabinet. I have checked the breakers under the bed and those are fine and the GFI plugs in the bathroom and kitchen are both working. Where else would there be a GFI plug that could have tripped.

It is most likely the reset on the inverter. If you have a 2013 or older the rocker reset is on the top of the inverter to the right side.

Sounds like the inverter needs to be reset. Those outlets all come off the inverter.

Oh, you were talking about not having electric power in the bedroom. I was thinking something else.

"Inverters" only handle 12vdc not 120vac. Wall outlets are 120vac. Breaker panel or GFCI.

That is not correct. The inverter changes D.C. To AC and in the case of a Berkshire 2013 and older the inverter supply's power to the television sets and two outlets in the bedroom. If a inverter only handled 12 v D.C. Current what would it be inverting. Lol it inverts D.C. From the batteries to AC current.
