Stackable? I am curious as to whether these inverters are stackable - where you can link additional units to increase total wattage of pure sine.

Either they are engineered for it or not. I ordered one as we need pure sine for certain motors - I can answer my own question and the answer is no.

I don't see why not. Just make sure the total load is within the limits if your inverter.

Yes they can, they are basicly like a battery. The only thing you will need to watch is that the charge controller will handle the increased amperage. I am running 2 of them with a 10 amp controller (overkill) with no problems. Pricewise, if you haven't purchased these panels yet you could probably get a 50 watt panel cheaper.

I don't know about stacking but you can chain the cheap Harbor Freight panels to get 45 watts and use that to recharge. There are some great websites and youtube videos on how to maximize power output from solar panels.

I should think so....in parallel of course (+ to +; - to -). All you're doing is increasing the amps/watts, voltage will be the same (up to 22vdc with no load in full sunlight). Pretty impressive little unit for the size and weight overall

I do not know but I looked at mine and there are no mounting points anywhere on it. You can find the manual at: http://www.sunforceproducts.com/prodinfo/manuals/11260PureSineInverter.pdf and can call them at 1 888-478-6435. I did not see anything about mounting it at all. I haven't permanently mounted mine but if I did I would probably mount it on a shelf to keep it horizontal. The dimensions of the 2500 watt inverter are 13.96 x 6.69 x 9.19 inches (35.5 x 17 x 23.3cm). It's a good price for a 2500 watt pure sine wave inverter if it meets your needs. I hope this helps.

Yes, they are stackable. I stack mine 2 at a time, but more can be stacked without any issues.

Great! now I need to decide on the proper inverter to use. The 1000 watt pure sine may be over-kill for just a TV/ DVD player and a couple 60 watt bulbs. Would a smaller watt inverter make more sense?

Hi Glen ,This is not a pure sine inverter.Please read the additional facts below.The inverter have three Power Index1.Marked power2.Peak Power3.Long time working powerNormal Output Power means the Peak power.Peak power is the moment Maximum power when we start the electric equipment.this peak power might be 1.5-3 timesDifferent electric equipment have different peak power. We need to know the rated power (Average Power) before we choose the Electric power supply ( like the inverter or battery). The power supply is 1.5-2 times. Electric equipment power,special electric equipment will need 3 times of Electric Power.General Average Power is counted according to 72% of peak power.This accounting methods usually is for small power electric equipment.

If you use a modified sine inverter with an led tv you will not like your picture. You should use a pure sine. Also your tv will last longer on a pure sine.Joe

I severely doubt it, because the sine waves would NOT be in synch and that would play havoc with any electronic devices attached, changing the RMS voltage outputs. It would create very dirty power. If you want to do this, you should contact the manufacturer to see if there is some modification they can recommend. Otherwise, just split the outputs to different circuits, but be very careful to NOT share a common neutral, and provide a separate ground as well.

I don't know if you can use this with an inverter. I do know that this has been removed from counter and is now sitting in the basement because it just didn't work well.

Yes. They can be stacked. The button on top (+) is raised enough to make contact with the (-) flat side of another. These batteries are super powerful.

Jeff, your question is kind of vegue. Are you referring to an inverter you use in an automobile of for battery backup for home or communication equipment? It being a deep cycle battery and similary to what we use in our UPS (Un-interuptable Power Supply) though ours will carry a load much longer. I guess that what I am saying to you is yes, they are suitable for use with an inverter.

NO! Don't put them in parallel. Because they are not identical, one will have a slightly higher output than another so it will attempt to supply more than its rated 100 Watts. Eventually it will fail. There's no way you can interconnect them to obtain equalized load.sharing.

NOT SURE ,, BUT ITS SOUND LIKE you have the right amount connected.. to you inverters. i think they are faulty inverters truly i think they are not ment to last a long long time.. i may be wrong.. because i have the same inverter and its still working bin 3 month.. will have to see how long they last..

Yes - stackable. And very efficient -- they take little space when stacked.
