Suggestion on a power backup system

[daniella3d]

wow awesome! how did you set that up? I would love to know how to hook this in case mine ever have the same problem.

I have 2 deep cycle batteries doing nothing

I bought my Noma 400 watts at Canadian Tire when they were in special price for 59$. I regret not having bought 2 of them! Mine has been working flawlessly for about 3 years.
