Thanks for the info.
If anyone is not convinced by that, that running a magdrive pump off a modified sinewave inverter is a bad idea, I'd be happy to do some testing.
I can come up with the inverter and instrumentation. I just don't have a pump I'm willing to sacrifice for the test. Any leaky/dying piece of junk pump would do.
