I was planning to check to see if there was one already on my ACE next time I'm out there, but forgot today when I was checking out my hot water heater issue.

The other day when I transferred it to where it is stored, I hit the store switch and drove away and then the wife realized we forgot to turn off and open the fridge. When I went back, I discovered that power to the inverter does not get shut off when you hit the store switch.

I'm going to have to remember to always turn the inverter off or it will be sitting there draining the battery. Not only does the inverter have a certain amount of overhead (amp draw) even when not in use, but the outside fridge is on an inverted outlet, so if that isn't turned off, the inverter would be powering that fridge and I would go back to a dead battery.
