    Default Installing Power Inverter - where?

    Decided I'm going to add a power inverter before next season. Wiring it will be the easy part; I'm wondering where you guys who have already done this have them installed for easy access?

    Kind of debating having it right inside a compartment or adding some sort of outlet with sealed cover near a drink holder or something for easier access right in the cabin.

    Or maybe just leave a small extension cord plugged in to it down in the compartment and pull that out to plug in to when needed?
    So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

    Berg, that sounds like a whole lot of work. Why not just throw one of these in the glovebox for when 110 is needed?

    Got one but it doesn't put out enough to run the 110v tube inflator (or the blender). I'm amazed how much faster that blower is than my stupid, over rated, over priced Connely Tube Gun.

    I don't think it will be much work - just trying to go for the most convenient setup.

    Kane, I can TOTALLY respect where you're coming from.

    Berg, I hope you can redeem yourself from that post with a good one regarding beer.

    LOL! You're right. Berg just needs a plug in cooler to keep his sixer of Zima cool, right?

    Ok, I'm actually look for a place I can plug this in...



    And the motorized stripper pole won't run on 12v.
