I''ve seen videos that say you need to pre-charge the inverter capacitors using a resistor when starting up a system that has Lithium ion batteries to prevent a rush of power. I can''t see how there would be a rush of power if the inverter is off and you follow the sequence in the owners manual. The battery manufacturer said he never heard of that happening unless …
