Glad it worked and it was a simple thing. This is a common issue when it gets cold and heaters are plugged in. You would think that the breaker Box would have the blown breaker but those are inverted plugs so the breaker needs to be on the inverter.

We had the same problem. There is a red reset button on the inverter in the basement above the house batteries. According to FR sometimes we pull more power than the inverter is sized for. Call or e-mail Mitch at FR, he will send you photos and additional explanation if needed. Good luck.

Well I learned something new. I didn't realize they were putting magnums in the 2012's. Just for my own edification, which mag is it? Is it subpanel'd, or just dedicated circuits?

As far as I know they have been putting Magnum inverters in since at least 2010. It's not a sub panel as I understand sub panel. I have no idea what the model is but it is a 1200 watt and is not pure sine wave.

I see... looks like the MMS1012. That would probably do it then.. 15 amp breaker. I knew they had stand alone inverters, but I wasn't aware they were installing the pass-thru inverter/chargers. Sorry 'bout that. :-)

Lost power

Had the exact same problem. Checked everything. Found that converter has a small breaker to out put ac to tv, bedroom outlets etc. don't really understand why they do this. I reset a small 16 amp switch on the converter and had power again.
