Using the Inverter - 2024 T@B400

I'm just getting my new 400 ready for a month-long trip. I think I pretty well understand everything from the owner's manual and this helpful site. However, I don't understand how to turn on or use the inverter - the manufacturer refers to a switch but I don't see one. How does one use it? Is it connected to an outlet and I just plug in? (I'm only likely to use it to charge camera batteries or maybe a small coffee machine.)
Any help appreciated!

What battery setup do you have? There are now different battery and inverter setups in the trailer, and the inverters are very different. So...we need to know what it is you have in your trailer. One lithium? Four lithium?Look at this thread and find the "inverter remote switch", which would be the "one" option for the inverter setup.

Thanks for responding. Problem solved - I hadn't seen the (tiny!) with in the bedside cubby. Shame it only powers that one outlet and the TV.

I meant switch not "with".

With only a single 100ah battery and a 1200w inverter it's not meant to power a ton of things. However, you could rewire other outlets to also work with the inverter. The outlet by the television is close enough to the kitchen countertop that you could run small appliances off that outlet if needed.BillCB said:Thanks for responding.
