Voltage drop from fridge start up!

As a generalisation, watt for watt LF inverters will have better motor starting capacity than HF inverters. I always say when in doubt weigh the inverter.

the table is a bit muddled as to weight, looks like 15.3 Kg

And there is the reason that I still have those ancient Dynamote Brutus Inverters.  Transformer much larger than my Magna-Sine.  The Brutus 3200 watt has an overload of 11,900 vs the Manga-Sine 4000 watt with 5800 watt overload.  The lower power Brutus will start bigger inductive loads than the Magna-Sine.     Weight: Brutus 65 LB  Magna-Sine 55 LB

Edited.   The Magna-Sine is 4000 watts, not 400
