I like your choice of inverter. Good value for a pure sine wave inverter. I think I might have watched the YouTube video you used. The one I saw only hooked the NON GFCI receptacle breaker to the inverter.

I love this inverter - so far (and the Youtube video helped me make this choice - good value for pure sine). No receptacle in my bathroom since the sink is separate (across the hall) with my floor plan. All of the GFI's are on the other circuit. But I guess Thor could have wired something different or wrong on its way to this one in question?? Yeah the little plug-in tester will tell you if its ground fault.....It works fine when on shore/genny power but it totally dead on inverter only power....its the crazyest thing I have ever seen.
I even purchased a Fluke 1AC- Non-Contact Voltage Tester and the entire wire is dead under the dinette (on its way to the receptial in question) but when you test under the bed it has power flowing though the wire (but then I loose it in the bathroom area - goes under the floor/commode area).
Something I did notice is the power goes to this dead receiptal but also continues someplace else but I have yet to find were (No more receiptals on this line that I know of and no reason for this wire to go anywhere unless it powers the slide??). That wire is also dead when I check with the Fluke.
Perhaps Thor was going to make my toilet seat heated but last minute they moved the wire to the flux compactor ..... Where is Doc Brown when you need him? LOL
Maybe once I get the solar hooked up it will have that 1.2 GW it needs and I will transport in to the future where Thor make products that are reliable??
Good questions.... keep them comming please.....I need to figure this thing out.
I guess I need to try my slide out with the inverter on to see if it will work. I have not tried that yet since my driveway is not level.
