GoWISE Power-On PS1003 Pure SINE Wave Inverter
2000w Cont/4000w Peak seems OK.

I've only done casual testing with it in a Prius and an
extension cord into the house - swapping appliances
from time to time.

The porch and house are all steel, including steel studs,
roof, and siding - so radiated RFI from any sort would
have a time trying to get inside.

Listened on 2m, AM-BC, FM-BC, and HF/SW with a portable
receiver. Also some HF SSB via an external 43' vertical that
was 100' from the Prius.

Others in a different environment may have differing results.
