Power

I have had my Windjammer plugged in for about a month. Now nothing works, except the Microwave. No lights, basically nothing. I know the electrical cord is delivering power. the battery is fully charged. I reset the two ground fault plugins.
I'd appreciate any advice.

How did you test to know you have power and how do you know the battery is fully charged?

You can't assume those things just because it's been plugged in for a month.

Microwave gets its power from the 120v AC shore power cord. Lights, etc., get power through battery in most cases. Do you have a battery cut-off/disconnect switch?

... and why did you have to charge the battery?
