Xantrex Prosine Inverter/Charger - 2000 Watt Hardwire, Model# 805-2000Xantrex Prosine 2.0

I purchased this model new in 2004. It almost immediately started acting erratic. In 2006, after several phone calls and tech service sessions, Xantrex replaced the defective unit with a refurbished one and only gave a 90-day warranty for the replacement. To this day, I still don't understand that one. I did pay full price for the new unit. Now the replacement unit has burnt up during a storm and a power surge. The unit when new was right at $2000.00. A replacement in 2006 gave me 7 years of relative trouble free service. That equates to about $285.00 per year or the equivalent of purchasing a new 8-D XHD battery each year. I don't feel that for the price of these units, they deliver the service that they should. If inverters only last six or seven years, save some money and get a Tripp Lite or similar unit for about half the price of a Xantrex.

Now I try to call Xantrex to inquire into another refurbished unit and get no answer. Read the other reviews on Amazon. There seems to be a customer service issue with this company.
