[QUOTE="Nightjar, post: 464193, member: 1414"] RR, have a 2500W inverter bought from eBay (China) mounted it in the boot of the van and use it with our bread maker, works a treat. Haven't tried it with the microwave because it's built in and a pain to pull out to get to the three pin plug. There are a few "Bewares" with people using inverters in caravans. A mate of mine blew his inverter up and it could have been worse with injury or loss of van. When he used his inverter he used to plug it into one of his 3 pin outlets in his van, which powered the whole van 240V circuit. It worked OK until one day he forgot to unplug the inverter before connecting the van to the grid. POOF!!!!! Lots of smoke. No more inverter. :bomb: [/QUOTE]
