Re: repair of Xantrex inverters - 2.5 and 3.0 Reply #20 – September 09, 2012, 03:58:08 pm Don,I think I have the 2 kw inverter/charger rather than 2.5 but would be happy if I had the 2.5. I do not really need the 4 kw capacity.Check prices with Philip Covault of AER Supply at 281.474.3276. Quote Selected

Maybe once I get my house or 36' Harley flathead suff sold. Hazard to believe that one year ago yesterday we brought the coach home and I am still working on the basement stuff! I would have thought we would have had many trips under our belt by now! Ah well, onward and upward...DonQuote from: Rudy – September 09, 2012, 03:58:08 pmDon,I think I have the 2 kw inverter/charger rather than 2.5 but would be happy if I had the 2.5.

They started a new company to build the inverter they were used to and Magnum is the result. It is now the go to RV inverter that Trace once was.The current Trace inverter plus Xantrex and ProSine inverters from Dometic just do not measure up to the Magnum or my MasterVolt marine inverter.I recently had my Xantrex Prosine 2.0 fail and have replaced it with a Magnum MS2012 (2 KW inverter, 100A charger) and the ME-ARC remote control panel. I'm quite happy with it so far. I bought the Xantrex as a reconditioned unit (on eBay) 5 years ago for $500, so I probably got my money's worth, and the failed unit went to an acquaintance who wanted to try to repair it. FWIW - The best price I found for the Magnum was from iMarineUSA.com ($1200). They were prompt with shipment and fine to deal with. Quote Selected

By far the best I have seen!
