I'm tuning our boat on the water and need a laptop on board to stay charged so we can make changes to the fuel without the laptop dieing shortly into the day.
The 300/600watt inverter will charge the laptop in my truck, but when I try to use it in the boat, the 'low battery' indicator on the inverter lights up and shuts down the inverter. We tried a new 400/800w one and it does the same thing at idle and up to speed with the volts reading at 14.
Boat has two batteries controlled by the either-or/both switch. Doesn't have an issue starting.
Any thoughts? Thank you.
