Truck stop question

[trucker3573]

Am I able to use the truck stop microwave to heat soup, meals etc that i have brought with me on my trip and not purchased at the truck stop, or will they say something about it?

I have never had an issue using the microwaves in truck stops.

The Inverter cost is one thing where the Installation cost is another. DO NOT have a Truck stop shop do the Installation because they can barely work on Trucks much less more complicated tasks of Inverter installations.
Make sure you purchase an Inverter that WILL POWER UP what you want to power up.
A 350 Watt Inverter will NOT power up a Coffee Maker.
There are different power requirements for different Microwaves unless of course you know this.

I have yet to use truck stop microwaves for heating things not purchased at those locations yet maybe I'll do such in the future.

Thank You for Your Time!!

Maverick wont let us have anything less than 1000 watt inverter and they have to install it for about $200. I've thought about using truck stop microwaves but I would feel funny just using their microwave for pre bought food.
