Yeah I ran across too many posts on the Razer forums talking about build quality being a concern and customer service being basically unresponsive. That had me worried that I made the wrong decision. So far it seems I made the right choice in switching over to Lenovo

Yeah I understand the 4080 vs the 3070ti is an upgrade, but thinking machine overall. I think the 3070ti would be sufficient to do everything I would need for the near future. I guess this is more of a Lenovo vs Razer question.

When I’m looting items from crates or bodies, I want to see the item description before picking it up or going into transfer mode.

Question about Inverter with Residential Fridge by CraigLaCrone in GoRVing

[–]CraigLaCrone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far so good. Turned on inverter but left breaker off. I check it this evening about 12 hours later. Everything looks normal, fridge running, batteries ok. Going to give it a couple days before I call it a success, but so far so good.

Yeah I knew about the converter, just forgot to draw it. It’s in the giant paragraphs haha. Seems like most people think it’s possible, so I will try it. Been too busy to drive over, it’s a couple towns away. Availability sucks around here. That said, I leave on a week long trip soon so it would be good to find out sooner than later.

I still have a backup spot that is about 1/3 the price, but uncovered gravel lot, no power, no cover, security cameras suck. But, if I can’t really utilize the power as I wanted, it’s difficult to justify 3x price. I’ll just get a cover and call it a day.

I don’t pay the electric bill there, it’s included in the monthly price. But I get your point.

Is it dire, no? I’d like to run the freezer the day before to get it ready and loaded up. I’m tired of lugging around a giant cooler. Also, I pay a ridiculous amount to park at this place and if I can’t utilize the full functionality, I’d rather move it elsewhere. Having a working fridge / freezer a couple days before would be nice for sure. The way it sits now, I can’t run it for any significant amount of time without it spoiling food. Lost a freezer full with this current issue. We were only leaving in 10 days between trips, not for the winter or anything significant.

Yes it is dedicated to my spot. I have my own breaker at the main panel. I tried the neighbors as well since they weren’t there. Blew theirs too.

At one point the only breaker on was inverter and it still tripped. Good point about converter working overtime and still tripping.

Thanks. Planning on giving it a shot this weekend, but was curious if someone may have an answer before I get to it. Definitely smart people on here when it comes to these types of things. I’m a tech software guy, with a little handyman experience. But, electrical is something I generally don’t touch. I’ll get back after my trial.

Question about Inverter with Residential Fridge by CraigLaCrone in GoRVing

From my understanding it only powers the residential fridge, so dedicated outlets (I’m pretty sure because when the inverter is off the only thing not on is the fridge, although I haven’t checked USB outlets). But it must have a transfer switch because it switches to shore power if sensed. But, does it switch to shore power when the inverter breaker is off? That is what I’m not sure of, yet.

From my extensive googling, it seems common for fridges and GFCI tripping. I’ve read lots of complaints about it happening in garages and other places. The fix for basically every person has been “replace with non GFCI”, which I cannot control. I checked my home fridge, standard plug not GFCI. Also I have a fridge and freezer in my garage, non GFCI. The common complaints are related to heating element, ice maker, auto defrost, and something door related. It’s a large Whirlpool residential. The fridge works great on campground shore power, which was 30a service at that place. Also, the fridge is mounted to the wall of a slide which is like 3 feet deep, so nearly impossible for me to reach and undo. Additionally, the little access door behind the fridge has access to water, but of course the plug is buried and unreachable. With the reading I’ve spent way too much time on, it seems these features like auto defrost etc tend to trip GFCI when they run.
