In this video, I review the Xantrex Freedom XC Pro inverter I purchased and installed in July of this year. I’ve been using it for two solid months of boating, primarily off-grid, and I’m back with my likes and dislikes.
I also go through all its settings in the app and demo how I use it with my portable gas generator for super-fast lithium battery recharging while we are underway.
