Video Transcript for Review of Victron RV Power Inverter - Inverter MultiPlus II Inverter Charger AC Outputs - VN73VR

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look together at this Victron MultiPlus-II Inverter Charger with AC output. Now, this MultiPlus-II Inverter Charger does three big jobs all in this one box. First, this is an inverter, so this is going to take power from a 12 volt battery bank and it's gonna turn it into 120 volt household AC power. So you're gonna be able to run normal appliances, tools, or electronics, and it's a pure sine wave inverter, which means it's gonna be safe for your sensitive electronics, like your laptops, TVs, and modern appliances.

It's also a battery charger, so when you're plugged into sure power or running a generator, this is going to automatically switch roles and become a high capacity battery charger, up to 120 amps. So that's going to efficiently recharge your batteries. This is also an automatic transfer switch. This is going to seamlessly switch between external AC power and battery power. So if your sure power drops out, this is going to switch to battery almost instantly.

Most people won't even notice. That's gonna make this a great UPS style backup. In terms of size and capability, this is rated at 3000 VA, about 2,400 watts continuous, which is enough to run things like microwaves, power tools, air compressors for short bursts and multiple household loads. This has a 50-amp transfer switch, so this can handle fairly beefy AC inputs. This is designed for 120 volt North American systems and it is UL listed which matters for safety inspections and insurance.

One of the standout features is the power assist. So if you're plugged into a weak power source, say like a small generator or limited sure power, this unit can supplement that power with energy from your battery so you don't trip breakers or overload the source. That's gonna be a huge win for RVs and off-grid setups. And because it's part of Victron's ecosystem, this is gonna play real nicely with solar charge controllers, energy storage systems, and remote monitoring and configuration through Victrons apps and accessories. Lemme go ahead and give you some measurements.

Hopefully you can see that on the screen there. Looking at what I'm calling the overall height, because when you have it mounted, it's gonna be bottom to top here, of course. Looks like we're sitting pretty close to about 22 and about 22 and three quarters inches tall. And the overall width, right at about almost 11 inches, hopefully you can see that. I'm gonna call it at about 10 and seven eighths inches wide. And then lemme go back to my closeup view here, trying to show you the depth. About five and 13 16ths inches deep. You are going to get a few things here. You're gonna get the mounting bracket and some hardware and a sensor wire. So this is gonna be ideal for you if you want a reliable, professional grade inverter or charger for your RV, your boat, your off grid cabin or backup power system, and you want everything to work automatically without having to babysit it. It may not be the most inexpensive option out there, but Victron is known for its build quality, its reliability, its smart power management, and this is really gonna be a great example of all the great things that Victron has to offer from their brand. If you happen to have any other questions, whether it's about this unit or anything else that we have here at etrailer, don't hesitate to reach out. We wanna make sure that you're getting exactly what you need. Well, again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
