In cab 110v mod complete

I just completed the in cab 110v ac mod. It took me a few hours even with me having the inverter allready under my seat. But it was a PITA to get to when you were driving. I followed PB's writeup to figure out how to get the consol out. Its VERY easy. I used a El cheapy Vector I had laying around for now. It powers a laptop or a droplight very easyily.


here are some pics.



Led and switch.



I screwed the inverter right to the floor near the rear mounting tabs only. The front of the inverter kinda hangs in the air. Its very sturdy though.

Looks good Lotust. Glad I could give a little inspiration. This mod is still one of my favorites. It came in handy yesterday when my brother used it to recharge his laptop while I drove him to college. His car was in the shop.

300 watts continous power
Features Stage One Clean Power output to reduce interference
