Anyone using a Renogy inverter/charger in their TAB?

We are thinking of getting a '24 TAB 400 Black Canyon but skipping the 400ah Lithium upgraded. Been researching the Renogy Reno 3000w inverter charger to replace the AIMS 1,200w inverter. Everyone seems to be using the Victron Multiplus as that is what comes with the Lithium upgrade. The Renogy is close to half the price of the Victron and has a built in display and bluetooth for configuration. My understanding is the Multiplus needs a special cable and a laptop for configuration.

Has anyone gone the Renogy route? They also make the inverter/charger without Bluetooth for approx. $110 less.

I've read some bad stuff about Renogy customer service but I would buy from Amazon and put the Renogy through a bunch of testing before installing it in the trailer. If it has problems I could return to Amazon within 30 days.

I'll probably check over at the big RV forums but wanted to see if anyone with a TAB was doing it.

Seems like more than a few have installed them over the years.

Hi,

Here are a couple of other forums (if your not familar) I follow for RV installs that you may be able to find info.

Vehicle Mounted Systems | DIY Solar Power Forum (diysolarforum.com)

Beginners Corner | DIY Solar Power Forum (diysolarforum.com)

I also read over and over about Renogy's bad customer service and not so stellar quality control. I don't have an inverter/charger, but just a Renogy 2000W inverter and have had no issues.

Anyone using a Renogy inverter/charger in their TAB?
