Most inverters will shut off at 10.5 or 11.00 volts under load as since they need a minimum voltage to operate properly. You don't say what size inverter you have, how it is wired, and what size battery. Inverters, batteries, and the charging system need to be designed to work as a system. Give some details and I can offer some help. Dennis

It is designed for to protect the starting battery, is there anyway to get more use out of it when connected to the deep cycle battery. Is there some inverter designed for this?
