  1. I have never had this problem, but if I may jump in. I would suggest using a capacitor on these systems. Auto batteries are notoriously unstable in voltage. From what I have seen, most riggers are wired straight to the battery or an distribution block. Low voltage circuit boards really really do not like voltage flux. These riggers use a lot of power in a hurry. 

     

    For example, I had a problem this winter with lights dimming when my plow was moving. I installed a capacitor and all better.  

     

    I am installing a full farad capacitor this spring as a preventive measure. $89 is cheap insurance. 

  2. Used but in excellent condition, with rain cover for base and original packaging.

  3. To test the inverter is pretty easy. First verify you have 12vdc coming in to the a unit, then verify you have a good ground (ohms from the negative terminal on inverter to a solid ground should be less than 1ohm). Then look inside, there could be an internal fuse. If you have power in, and no 120v out, time to replace.

  4. Bought a new (old) boat last fall. Filled it up and found water shooting out of the water jacket...both sides. Need a new one!

     

    5.0 liter (305ci) Mercruiser. It will take a 305 or 350. It is a 1987 model, but I don't think that matters much. I am not a motor expert. Looking for something I can drop in. Peripherals like starter, power steering pump, etc I can handle swapping.
