Re: [Elecraft] OT: Grease your DELETE Key

When I installed the solar package in my RV I used a Morningstar 
Sure-Sine 300. It was recommended as an RF quiet inverter, and,
although I don't do a lot with my KX3 when I'm out camping, I
do some and it seems pretty quiet. It's only 300W, not 500, so
maybe it won't meet your needs but I'm happy with it.

You might contact IOTA Engineering. They don't seem to make exactly what you

want but they do make emergency lighting inverters packaged with batteries.?

Perhaps they can sell you the guts of one of these.? I know them for their 
battery chargers, which are first rate and electrically quiet.

Disclaimer:? I moonlighted for the founders of this company at another small

start-up about 50 years ago.? It is a local Tucson company but I have zero 
association with them now.

However, for some of the station accessories I need to provide a small 120
VAC supply. I am looking for a ~500 Watt pure sine wave inverter which is rf
quiet. I have already tried a GOWISE Power inverter because it was billed as
being rf quiet. Unfortunately, it was a terrific hash generator!
So my question: Does anyone in this group have experience with quiet
inverters? Can anyone make an experience-based recommendation?
