Ok this time I put the clamp meter close to the negative battery terminal, turned on the toaster oven and one element.
Now 23.51 x 101.2 = 2379.2
The energy meter 2372.3 so that a lot better, now the AC voltage was 235 volts and I did notice turning on a 2nd element caused the voltage to drop to 215 volts.
Efficiency = 100 X (2372.3 / 2379.2) = 99.7% WOW!!
This is an inverter manufacturer's and DIY'ers dream!!
