Title: Heart Interface Freedom 20 Quit inverting and charging
Post by: MAZ on July 26, 2022, 06:29:30 pm
Just wondering if anyone has a good used heart interface freedom 20. Needing to save money at this time and hopefully fix it with a good used one or get it repaired. I know there are some shops that will repair them. Thanks, Mark

You may want to consider separate charger and inverter to save money. But usually hard to find a high amp charger. Inverters come in all price points and can be inexpensive.

Did you try a reset? Unplug from 120v shut off batteries, make sure controller is black no power, If it has power try chassis batteries, let sit for a minute then turn on all batteries then plug back in to 120v

Yes. I actually had the inverter out and back in. Checked connections and reseated. I get a hum but no ac out or charge out. Smells burnt. Looked good inside. Control panel reads the ac in but nothing out.

Once again this forum comes through with great people. I got an inverter practically delivered to me from Gibby. It is a Freedom 25 a few years older. I installed it today and it is working, charging and inverting. It came indirectly from Dani to Gary Omel to Gibby to Me. Small world. Thanks Gibby you are a blessing and it was wonderful to meet you and your wife yesterday.
