Default Re: Inverter question

Can you really just "pull" 110 amps out of the 12v system "as is"? I mean, were would you even tie in, at the 12v battery's terminals? At the HV DC-to-DC converter's 12v side?

And wouldn't that force the ICE to run continuously, for reasons similar to why the rear defroster forces the ICE 'on'?
