OK calling all inverter experts. I have a 48 Sundancer that has a fridge on the aft deck that I want to replace with a Uline Icemaker. Problem is I dont want to run gene we I leave the dock for just an icemaker that only runs on AC voltage. So my thoughts were the following
1. I have a 24 volt battery bank for the thruster that never gets used that has its own charger on it.
2. Replace the thruster charger with a 24v inverter charger with auto switching and run the AC wire to an isolated outlet for the icemaker.
This way when I am on shore power the charger is charging the batteries and auto switching that outlet over to AC and when I take away shore power it will autoswitch over to inversion and convert the 24v DC to AC to power my ice maker.
Will this work?
