Bankedtime... try putting some rubber mounts under the inverter.
I told my dealer it was too loud and that's what they did. It makes it a little quieter anyways.

I'm pretty sure all the 2015-14 Pinnacles I looked at had 1800w inverters.
Then I read the specs for 2016 and it changed to 1000w

My inverter must not be working...
I have never noticed any noise from it at all.
Going out Friday with RV, will have to check.

Inverter

We just FINALLY got our refrigerator repaired 11/01, it only worked one weekend when we first got the Pinnacle, 5 months ago.
Hoping everything is finally working with it now.
Will definitely be turning inverter on now that frig should be working.

On our fifth wheel it says to ONLY turn inverter on when NOT plugged in to shore power.

I will let you know if inverter seems to be working, because it has never made any fan noise.......

Just curious, how many batteries do you guys have and are they 12 volt or 6 volt?

Thanks
Jack

Our dealer said we can leave the invertor on even on shore power. Only turn it off when storing.
We have 4 6 volt batteries and solar panels to charge batteries.

No one said anything about the inverter when we did our PDI
except that the frig runs off it when traveling.
It has the button to push in to turn it on and the owners manual says not to leave on............
Not really sure.
