It's wired as a pass through inverter, (not a separate few outlets), with ALL outlets having inverter access. There is also no switch to flip for inverter use. If the XM100 is turned on, the inverter automatically provides power to the outlets if the generator or shore power is not providing AC power.


They still come with the standard two 12v deep cell batteries, so there isn't much capacity. You can watch television for a few hours, or charge your notebook and electronics, but that's about it.
Here are some issues you should be aware of:
1. If the Gen/Shore power is active, will the XM1000 limiting it pass thru current to 15A?
2. The modified sine wave may damage your electronics devices.
3. My XM2000 will power up all the outlets, refrigerator and Sat receiver indefinitely when in motion. It will sustains all the loads for at least five hours when in parking mode.
4. XM2000 will also work with the microwave for few minutes without needing to turn on the generator.
