[Public-list] inverter

[J Bergquist]

Thanks, bob. This is helpful.

Part of the reason I posed the question to the list in the first place was
to see if there are other inverters available which work as well as the ones
at West marine but cost a lot less. You have answered my question in the
affirmative, so thanks a bunch!

And thanks for the jib, too!!!

Later,

JB
