Wiring Inverter to Converter

We just got a 2010 rpod 171 and joined this forum. Haven't been out in the pod yet. This forum already saved me a ton of time and headaches.

Last weekend installed the risers obtained from Forest River. The kit is now $150....I mentioned this forum and that people here used to get them for $75. After checking with the "boss"was told they have always been $150 and don't believe anyone ever got them for less....I scraped bottom in my own driveway so I had to get them anyway.

While it was up on jack stands I checked the screws holding the tank brackets to the frame. Same issue as others pointed out on this site......only two of three screws were installed in each bracket and one of them on the fresh water tank had sheared off on ours. The bars appeared to be the correct length...no gaps where the brackets connect. Drilled and put a 2.5 inch by 1/4 inch bolt through the center of each bracket all the way trough the frame. do. Someone suggested there should be no structural issues if you drill through the center of the frame....which is absolutely correct.   
I also installed the missing self tapping screws that the factory neglected to put in.....So there are now three screws and one bolt in each bracket.   I NEVER would have thought to check this...THANK YOU.

I also read up on axle bearings and repacked them while it was lifted. They look OK, as did the brakes.

Planning a trip to the Michigan Upper Peninsula wilderness for Labor Day. Noticed that the TV doesn't work on 12 volt....I have a 750 watt inverter from the antique RV we used to have and plan to install it in the RPOD. I'd like to wire it to the converter so that all of the existing 110 v outlets will work when not plugged in. Any advice on whether and how to do this and if an additional "switch" of breaker is needed would be appreciated. Not essential to do it this way....it just seems like it should be possible and easy to do.    

Welcome.  Either the factory staff has selective memory or they've had so much turnover nobody is around that remembers... but I definitely bought mine for $75 + shipping, directly from the factory.  I think it was close to $100 all-told.

Assuming your 750 watt inverter can do a modest surge of 1000 watts, it can draw over 90 amps.  Way too big to add to an empty fuse slot on the converter.  You'll have to attach directly to the battery connection at the rear of the converter with your own large fuse and a very very short run to the inverter.  1000 watts is pushing the limits of "too big" for a 12 volt system, not that the manufacturers will mention that while they are selling their 1000, 2000 and 3000 watt 12 volt inverters.

That reminds me, when you install a dedicated outlet it is safest to make it a GFCI outlet.
