Phoenix 12/500 230V inverter
The unit probably deserves a 5 star because of quality and reliability but it took me by surprize on how inefficient it is at low current. Make sure you understand the efficiency curve to by a charger that can keep up with the charging side. I will by one again because I trust Victron products to run unattended for a couple of weeks and the ones I already have do just that.

Quality inverter
Bought this to power my emergency lights during blackouts. Using it in conjunction with a ve.direct bluetooth dongle and a 100Ah LiFePO4 battery. Works great and you can monitor the usage via the VictronConnect App. Note that this is 400W or 500VA

Review
Awesome device only problem is no protection for reverse polarity and a long wait time on fix.
Unlike most controllers, you can vary not just the startup pressure (which is what most other units do), but also the ongoing, running pressure output.
The controller is also much smarter than most of the slightly cheaper ones- it doesn't just give up for 24 hours if it gets no flow,for example, as some others do. For an extra 10% or 20% on the price, it's well worth the money to get a
much smarter product, that's clearly had a lot of thought go into the software.
The instructions, translated from Italian, are not the clearest, though.
