Typically Microwaves are 1000 devices. So you will need a larger than 1000 watt "inverter" to use it. 1000 watts at 90% efficiency is still about 100 amps of current draw. That is 1/0 guage wire if it is over 5 ft long to power the inverter. Energy is NOT free. Takes power to make power.

Sounds like one of two things are happening:

1. Microwave is drawing too much current, causing internal voltage monitoring circuitry in inveter to go into protection mode.

or

2. RFI from microwave is somehow being few into inverter causing similar circumstance.

Nn p295 microwave stops after 3sec

You could have a problem with the inverter board or magnetron. If it shows a code like "H98", then it's probably an inverter issue. To test, go to:

How to hook up the wiring on the crunch 520.5 need to know the gage for power

Hello,
  • I would go with some good 8 gauge. More than that for this amp would be overkill and a waste. Many people thing thicker wire is better but that is not the case. To thick of wire to the power feed can draw to much power and send the amp into protect mode. Also to thick of wire with an insufficient amount of power can actual hamper the amps true abilities.
  • Use stranded copper wire not solid copper wire for the best results of conductivity.
  • Make sure to run a 50 amp fuse inline with the power wire right off the battery. Amps surge and it is far easier to replace a $1 fuse than components inside your amp.
  • Your ground is best served running to a bolt in the floorboard. Using the same size, style and quality as your power wire is recommended.
  • Your remote wire will connect to the remote wire running from the back of your deck. The remote wire enables your amp to shut off when your deck is shut off. A simple 16 gauge stranded copper wire will suffice for the remote wire.
  • I recommend hooking the speakers up using one speaker per channel. I don't bridge amps really. If you want more power then buy a bigger amp.
  • The AV cords will go from your deck to your amp right to right and left to left.
  • That's the way to wire your amp.

Regards, Tony

Can you run a 8 gauge power wire to a jl audio 1000/1 amp and not have problems even though jl reccommends 4 gauge power wire?

Hi, if you're going to run a smaller wire, you also need to use a smaller fuse. A 50 amp fuse is needed for 8 gage wire. The fuse is there to keep the wire insulation from melting, which is what will happen if you run too much power thru the wire. If you don't plan to turn the amp up too high, this may work fine, but I would test it first with a 50 amp fuse before installing. You will need all of the speakers hooked up and the gain set to max to test the power draw. See the following link on wire sizing for more info: http://www.bcae1.com/wire.htm

Toxic tx 600 amplifier

You need to get another amp for your sub. I would say if you want good quality go for MTX because I have had amps from MTX and never had a problem. what you need to know is look at the fuses on the amp if there are 3 of the 25 amp fuses on there then it should push out about 750 watts but on MTX they under clock the amp so it will push about 800 at 14.4 volts for that you will need a 4 gauge wiring kit with a 60 amp fuse in the fuse link. As far as your other amp hook up the speakers and tweeters to that but be sure to tune in down and you would need a 8 gauge wiring kit. I hope this helps you.

When I turn microwave on it blows 60 amp fuse

60 amps times12 volts = 720 watts times 80% effic of conv. = 576 watts available for microwave...

You must have a very tiny microwave as most require at least 1000 watts input power. That might have something to do with blowing the fuse. Since the microwave has a very reactive inout, you need a goodly safety margin above the rated watts input.

I have a 1750w power inverter for my van. The problem is I have absolutely no installation instructions, product manual or line drawingon how to install this product. can you help

Without seeing it its a little tuff.
Ok,look at the back side of the inverter,there should be two inputs.One negative- and one postive+.Run the biggest wire you can get to fit in the holes and still lock it down tight,probaly about six gauge wire.
On the hot side +,run the red wire to the battery,but before you connect to the battery,attach a line fuse,Thirty amp should do.Leave fuse out till last step.Run a black six gauge wire to the battery.(You should be able to run the wires through one of the factory rubber grommets on your van,use a stiff wire, or something like a car or cb antenna to attach your wire to the antenna with electrical tape.you may need to cut a **** in the grommet ,so you can push the antenna threw.Be careful not to damage any factory harness wires.)
Secure the inverter to floor of van,make sure the fan can vent well.
Go to battery put in your thirty amp fuse,Then the unit is ready to turn on.Make sure you run your engine while it is powered on,otherwise it wont take long to drain your battery.

When i hook up my 750 watt inverter to my truck do i need to install a isolator or inline fuse? or just connect the 4 gauge battery cables directly to the battery and the inverter?

Yes, inline fuse as close to the battery as possible. If 4 gauge wire were to ground out without fuse, would most likely start a fire or at least damage other existing harnesses (depending on routing) before a person could disconnect battery.

Jl audio 1000/1 low voltage -keeps shutting off at high volume

You should definitely upgrade the power wire to the sub amp to 4 gauge -absolutely your choking your amp its starving for current-poor thing is starving !!!!!!!

Confused

Hi jimmyjames,

 

How do you have the wires hooked from the sony reciever to the inputs on the mtx? 

 Sounds like your Remote wire is way too big. it should be 14 guage.  It only sends a low voltage low amp signal.

 

Another thing that could be messing up the sounds is the routing of the wires.  you should have the power supply wires separate from the Audiop signal wiring.  Power should run down the Driver side and Audio down the passenger side.

 

When you answer I may be able to tell you more.
