Interesting Video from Victron about Multiplus's

Of course "interesting" varies depending on what floats your boat :D , But I reckon to get the best out of anything, it helps to have an understanding of how it works.
Anyway, the Video

One thing I found interesting is how Victron create such a good Sine Wave. Everyone knows there are two different types of Inverter - Modified Sine Wave and Pure Sine Wave. Not everyone realises that the term "Pure" is quite subjective ;)
Last Year I took some photos of the display from my Meter showing the output of a couple of inverters, plus a UK Grid Mains output

You can see that, just like Mr Victron says, their Sine Wave output is at least as good as the Mains Supply, whereas the Edecoa output (and Edecoa is a decent brand) is visibly noisy. I expect most of the cheap "pure sine wave" inverters will not be as good as the Edecoa, let alone close to the Victron.
