anyone using Xantrex Freedom XC 2000 - 12 Volt Inverter/Charger?

[LosAngeles]

Hi all

Is anyone using the Xantrex 817-2080 Freedom XC 2000, 2000 Watt Pure Sine Wave 12 Volt Inverter/Charger?

How is it, generally? Likes? Dislikes?

It would be going into a new Hallmark Pop up truck camper.

I know that under heavy loads that the fans can turn on...

but under normal [light] loads (fridge running, solar panels in the sun) are the fans on?

and does it have any hum (acoustically) under light or heavy loads?

and are the fans 1 speed (on / off) or do they have different levels?

do the fans ramp up and down, or just switch on?

I don't like fan noise, or acoustic hum.... thus the questions.

thanks.

J.

From working in the RV field those inverter charger combos can get noisy. When running the inverter the fans will almost always kick on, they have quick a bit of heat build up when inverting. When plugged in and charging if you're making liberal use of it's converter feature you'll also get quite a bit of buzzing. Best to mount it in a place where buzzes and hums won't bother you
