The inverter will draw about 90 amps when making toast, but for a brief period. Lets say it is 3 minutes. That is 1/20 of an hour, and at 90 amps / 20 = 4.5 amp hours for toast. If you have two 75 amp hour batteries each, that is not a very serious energy demand. On a solar recharge, depending on the panel size, half hour to an hour to put it back.
I like "real" toast from an electric toaster....lol.

Thanks Iroba for the toaster info. Unfortunately my FC is 2013, and the inverter is 750 watts...and my regular toaster does not work on the inverter. Oh well, another future upgrade project....maybe.
