Question:
I have a WFCO 1800 W pure sine wave inverter that went bad Model WF-5318. I am looking to replace it with the same or another brand. Would you recommend any brand over another? I am looking for something that is basically plug and play - I dont really want to have to change wires, etc. Changing the control panel is fine. Also, could I upgrade to a 2000W or 3000W without the need to upgrade wires?

Hey Jason, thanks for reaching out!
I recommend picking up the Progressive Dynamics 1800 Watt Inverter w/ Transfer Switch # PD44FR. you could potentially upgrade to the 2000 Watt # PD64FR, but you'd want to make sure your wiring can handle up to 30 amps. I don't know any of these that will be plug and play, but removing and then plugging the wiring into the new unit shouldn't be too difficult.
The Progressive Dynamics products are really great quality which is why I recommend going with that brand.
Why are you wanting to upgrade to a higher rated inverter?
