Probably the first question the insurance company will ask you is the license number of your licensed/certified electrician.
Thank you for the reminder, I just always think of the converter charging the batteries etc when I turn them on USE.

I NEED to find that breaker you speak of and check it. Is it a 120v or a 12v? Breaker or fuse?
