Leave Power Inverter Connected?
Ok, so I added a cheapish 400w power inverter for the upcoming trip to Indiana and then RRE to power the kid's DVD player, charge cell phones, etc. It will get upgraded to a decent unit someday but this was a last minute decision and I needed to find something locally. I ran 6 gauge wire from underneath the rear seat where I mounted the inverter all the way to the main battery. Although the inverter has a power switch which I plan on making use of, the directions say I should disconnect it from the battery when not in use. Do I need to be worried about leaving it shut off but still connected to the battery or is that just their legal department doing their duty to make sure I can't sue them
