Inverter Installation

In this project, we install a 375 watt Victron electrical power inverter into my Mitsubishi Delica L400 to charge a Bluetti battery bank.

This post is a follow-on to 18 Month Delica Campervan Updates, where we installed a Bluetti AC180 battery bank and 100 watt solar panel.

In this post, I provide the details of how I added a 375 watt Victron inverter to charge the Bluetti battery bank while I drive, which now completes my van’s electrical system.

The video at the top of this post discusses how to select an inverter and shows all the details for this installation.

I chose the Victron inverter because:

  • It is high quality.

  • It has pure sinewave output, which is better for sensitive electronics.

  • It includes an interface for connecting to my van’s ignition so that it only pulls power from my van’s battery when the ignition is turned on. This prevents accidental dead batteries.
