Looking Great by the way!
well, so much for That idea... ah well... guess I build myself a one person tear so I can bug out occasionally instead of a larger family one (wife, me and youngest son) instead.

That's 2400 watts at 120 volts. The 400 watt inverter will only draw 3.3 amps at 120 volts, peaks up to 800 watts are still only 6.7 amps. One website recommends 4 gauge braided wire for 6-10' length. I am sure there is someone out there who has a better understanding of this.
Would a heavy extension cord wire be adequate?
