What they say
Renogy 2000W 12V Inverter
- Reddit owners of the 12 V P2 inverters report mixed results.
- An r/vandwellers owner says the 1000 W draws about 0.5 A at idle (September 2022).
- An r/vandwellers owner who installed the 2000 W in a van about two years earlier found its GF light shutting it down whenever a new Starlink router was plugged in, even into the built-in outlets, and measured no neutral-ground bond at the outlets despite the manual (January 2023).
- An r/SolarDIY van owner's 2000 W kept tripping a 100 A breaker on a 1,600 W espresso maker, which commenters put down to undersized breakers (May 2023).
Power Queen 2000W Inverter
- Reddit owners report mixed results with Power Queen batteries.
- An r/overlanding owner said a 100 Ah stopped holding a charge after 15 months of light use and that Power Queen, though responsive, would not honor the warranty (2024), an r/batteries owner of a 12.8 V 100 Ah bought as a CPAP backup found its BMS tripped on a general-purpose lithium charger, with Power Queen pointing to its own 20 A charger (2024), and an r/SolarDIY owner of a 25.6 V 50 Ah said it arrived with the BMS shut off and had to be jump-started before its Bluetooth showed 99 percent charge (December 2024), while an r/LiFePO4 commenter called Power Queen decent for a trolling motor (2025).

Renogy 2000W 12V Inverter
- DIY Solar Forum owners of the P2 inverters split.
- An owner of the RNG-INVT-1000-12V-P2 could not trip its built-in GFCI with a plug-in tester, and Renogy support replied that it trips at 50 to 100 mA of leakage against the tester's 6 to 9 mA (December 2024).
- In a 2022 thread one 1000 W owner heard a loud tone near 15 kHz while another 1000 W owner and a 3000 W owner heard nothing beyond the fan, and in a 2023 thread an owner's 1000 W pure sine inverter failed after 14 months, two months out of warranty, with a popped MOSFET.
Power Queen 2000W Inverter
- On Expedition Portal and DIY Solar Forum, the owner of a 12 V 100 Ah trolling-motor battery bought in November 2023 measured 106 Ah but found the BMS cutting off charge near 13.9 V with its cells out of balance; Power Queen maintained the battery was fine, and he returned it through Amazon for a refund (February 2024).
- On Swimbait Underground an angler running three 12.8 V 100 Ah batteries on his trolling motor posted positive first impressions (July 2024), and on DIY Solar Forum owners of the 12 V 200 Ah reported no problems in early use (December 2021).
