That hiccup took down the GTI for a couple of seconds, and then it came back up.
Which caused the Sinewave inverter to hiccup AGAIN.. And it repeated..

The good news, nothing smoked..

The load was pretty light, about 130w. I think maybe a heavier load
would keep the GTI more docile. But, I'm not sure.

I'm wondering about using a series capacitor to lightly couple the sinewave to the GTI.
Perhaps the GTI could sync-up and make power for a load..?.

I'm trying to get this TED to work right now, it's got crummy comms,
likely due to noise from something in the house.
I've also got a 10A relay coming for the Sanyo.

GdNite,
