Hi GleamBright and all,

My name is Jake, thank you for your invite. It is an absolutely brilliant idea to create a group that can collaborate and support each other. It is really great you are on similar to mine path. I hope we can help each other and with some help from more experienced members we will become proud builders of our own inverters  .

I don't want to repeat my sad Oziverter story again - you can see it on the KeepIS thread. In short: I failed.
At the moment I have WG control board almost ready (no arduino programmed yet) and I currently solder my WG power board (half way through). I have toroid ready from my failed Ozinverter build. I have wound it exactly as described in Brian Leslie's manual. I still need to buy choke cores but I will have to ask some of the experts if I couldn't use the one I already have from Ozinverter and just add another, the same one.

I am no expert but if I can help with anything at all I gladly will. Just bear in mind that I am in the UK so 9 hrs behind you (if I am not mistaken).

Have you ordered your pcb boards already? I assume not. I could potentially be interested in one more set if I am not too late and if it wouldn't be too much hassle (and depending on price, obviously).

Speak soon
