I see a lot of people doing the wrong thing and I just want to let you know this is ALL RIGHT in ALL aspects! Good presentation, clean install and using the right gauge wire with breaker!! Keep up the good work and nice truck.

I like how you raised it up off the carpet keeps airflow under the inverter which it keeps it from overheating.

When running the ground wire, do you run it all the way back to the battery or just within a ft of the inverter (similar to a stereo amp)??

Good video. Just be sure to have the engine running when using the inverter or you will kill that starting battery.

Cable management is what separates the pros from the amateurs. Clean mod my guy

Did you ground the inverter to the chassis?

this is how you melt your truck down. placing hot wires under your feet

I have a very similar system on my 2010 Silverado. I see that you made this video 5 years ago so,,, you have probably learned a thing or two since then. Merely using this system as it is designed will expose the shortcomings in short order. The first sign is the inverter tripping out on low voltage, then the computer throwing a code to "service charging system". My thought is that The stock alternator on that truck is a 160 amp I believe. if you use every amp at 14vdc through your inverter that is 2240 watts available max. I also looked up the ampacity of the 2 ga wire you are using, which is limited to 94 amps on both wire sizing charts I found. The breaker size of 300 amps is insufficient to protect the conductors you are using, so you should increase the wire size or decrease the breaker protection level. Your goal is to protect everything in the circuit. At most this system could push out 3000 watts for only a short period of time before depleting the battery or melting the insulation from the wires. As for my experience, My alternator is only capable of delivering 50 amps @ 14vdc to the inverter on a consistent basis. THAT IS ONLY 700 WATTS. I am using a "Pure Sine Wave " inverter and you should too.

Great idea to use jumper cables! Probably cheaper than buying raw wire. Nice work!

Well done video...very good presentation. I just bought a Sierra and am looking for ideas about where to mount an inverter. Your video has helped a lot.

Good Job, this is exactly the setup I was looking for with out all the fluff, simple to understand and economical, Thanks !!!

Cheers, i got a Canadian tire 1100 & your all I needed to make sure a good plan came together.

finally found the exact video I've been looking for all day. Thank you

Thanks for the video. Clean and simple. You have helped me immensely.

Nice to see a clean properly done install. 👍

Excellent - Nice install, exactly what I was looking to se in a video description. Thanks for doing this. Cheers!

Awesome. Be think of do very same thing. Really appreciate you posting video how you did yours

Best explanation I've seen so far. Simple, straight forward and great detail. Other youtubers could take a lesson from you

Nice job! You will love the power for so many things. Good video.

Thanks for explaining if you drilled the holes or not! And how. Now I can do it!
