xantrex prosine 1000

[cvin]

had this prosine 1000 in storage , been a few years since i used it

thought i would set it up where it could be plugged into the batteries using that andersen connector i put on for the solar panels and use it to charge the laptop/milwaukee batteries maybe once or twice a week

this thing is huge and heavy, i know it is a few years old but are they all this big and heavy now?
amazon says it weighs 16lbs but it seems heavier than that to me

think if newer ones are smaller i might buy a newer one

Same brand, cheaper and lighter model.

and $288 is not bad

will see if this one still works

this is half the weight but dimensions do not look a whole lot smaller..

guess i am surprised they are still so big

might be worth upgrading to a charger/inverter so it is out of the way etc

i see more research in my future
