Xantrex Freedom HF 1000 Inverter/Charger 1st Generation - 806-1020

The Xantrex Freedom HF 1000 (Part #806-1020) is a classic "all-in-one" power system that combines a 1000-watt inverter, a 20-amp battery charger, and an automatic transfer switch. Often referred to as a "mobile power system in a box," it is a popular choice for factory installations in RVs and boats due to its reliability and compact footprint.

Product Overview

The Xantrex Freedom HF 1000 utilizes modified sine wave technology, making it a cost-effective solution for running standard household appliances like microwaves, coffee makers, and entertainment systems. Its integrated 3-stage 20A charger ensures your batteries are topped up efficiently whenever shore power is connected.

• Integrated Transfer Switch: Features a 30-amp automatic relay that seamlessly transitions between battery power and shore power, ensuring your devices stay powered without manual switching.

• Easy Installation: Designed with quick-connect AC terminals on both the input and output sides, which simplifies wiring and eliminates the need for messy strain relief clamps.

• Ignition Lockout: A dedicated safety feature that disables the inverter when the vehicle's ignition is turned off, preventing accidental battery drainage while parked.

• Remote Monitoring: Comes with a detachable digital display and a 25-foot cable, allowing you to monitor battery voltage and system status from your dashboard or cabin.
