THOR #20891
Magnitude/Omni RB34 Inverter

Can anyone tell me what the inverter powers on the RB34?

I know the Fridge (& outside one too?) and CPAP plug in bedroom. Anything else?
With only a 100w solar panel & 10 amp controller, I do worry about battery drain. (I guess the generator will get its hours )

THOR #12751
Magnitude/Omni RB34 Inverter

The Inverter on the SV34 powers:

- Residential Fridge
- Outdoor Fridge
- Outlet next to bed nearest bathroom
- TV in overhead bunk
- Outdoor TV
- Outlet for DVD Player

If you go to the Thor Owner’s Resource site, you can download the schematics.... plus all of the other documentation specific to your coach.

I added two additional batteries and two 160W solar panels. I’ve had no issues powering the fridges overnight and then making a pot of coffee in the morning.

Thanks for the info.

I can’t register at Thor owners site yet. I don’t have the VIN. My RB34 is still on factory order.

Yes, I had one 160w panel and a 30 amp controller on my previous motorhome without a inverter. Fridge was 2-way. So, I worry about batteries. Probably will add extras before supplementing solar.

You must have upgraded your controller too?

I did not upgrade the Controller and have had no issues. When you factor in that solar isn't 100% efficient, the panels are rarely in full sun at the proper angle for maximum power generation, etc., the stock 10A controller has been working fine.

If it eventually craps out, I will replace it with a 30A MPPT Controller but for now the stock controller is doing the job.

Is the VegaTouch control system powered via Inverter, or is it 12v?

Also, does the solar controller run through the master battery disconnect?
