I'd like to get safety tips regarding the installed location of an 1800 watt inverter.
I installed one right next to a 12 volt deep cycle battery, inside a closed compartment. Later I read it might not be best practice to have the inverter in the same compartment as the battery.
Is there danger of explosion? Is corrosion an issue?
I'd like to know if others have their inverter installed in the battery compartment - any issues?
I like the inverter where I have it installed, good utilization of space. But I will move it, if it's recommended.
Bottom line - Is it safe?
