Check out Amazon. More choices there than you can imagine.

Just filter by best reviews. Competition had driven prices down over the years where you can buy a good 1,000 watt inverter with 2,000 watt "Peak" output for what a previous generation 600 Watt True Sine Wave inverter cost.

Ask yourself what you use it for. If it's an occasional tv show then about any inverter will do. If it's pretty constant usage for something critical then I'd step up to a pure sine wave inverter. I'd probably also increase the capacity to about 1000 watts as Mike eluded to above.

So it's an inverter/charger?
I still can't find anything under that model number.

There's Xantrex of course then Magnum. You could always go back with a Dimensions/Magnum unit.

I love my Samlex EVO-2212 Inverter/Charger.
>They have great customer support.
>It is made in Taiwan.
>It will surge to 6,000 watts.
>It has two AC inputs, Shore & Generator.
>It has a 100 amp DC charger built-in.
>It is like having a UPS for your Motorhome.


I could go on.......
