Inverter recommendations

[Flip_4_It]

I am researching inverters to install in my truck. My requirements are that it be pure sine wave and have the capability to put a remote on/off switch on it. It will need to be between 1800-2000 Watts for the loads I will run. Inverter power will be feed from dual odyssey pc1500 agm batteries and a 130amp alternator. I will generally only power the inverter while the truck is running except for really short periods of time.

I would like to know the brands and models that others are using and any recommendations for what a reliable brand would be.

Thanks!

In another inverter thread both of these units got high praise. Spend some time searching the archives, you'll find out what other people are using.

I'm looking for the same thing and have been leaning towards the Xantrex Prowatt SW2000. Seems like a decent unit and Xantrex is a quality company. A remote on/ off switch is available. I bought my solar charge controller from Eco Direct and it was competitively priced and shipped quickly.

Does anyone have experience with Go Power or Samlex Pure Sine wave invertors?

I have a 300W Samlex inverter in my camper to run my laptop and modem. It has been running fine for just over 2 years now. It does not have a remote switch however.
