I saw one at COSTCO the other day for $69.00 US. Don't know about the wave shape of the output though. Hope this helps

May I ask the group for some procurement advice?
I am looking for a 1000 watt inverter (115 VAC from a 12 VDC marine or traction battery) that gives a "modified sine wave" output, literally 6 square waves in a cycle (lots or harmonics!)
Where might I find one in Canada? (New or used.) What can I expect to pay for this unit in Canada?
Also, what is a recommended brand of battery charger and likely Canadian price? I don't want to trickle charge it continuously to avoid gassing - I want a "charge and switch off" unit, or similar - so automobile chargers are out.
BTW, this is not my professional field even though it looks very simple technically.
Many thanks for all replies.
Cheers,
Roger
