Using a transformer on the output of your inverter is generally not a good idea. Inverters are usually designed to idle at low power draw until they sense a load, and the transformer windings are enough load to kick the inverter into a very inefficient power mode. If you do use a transformer, plan on unplugging it when it is not hooked up to any appliance.

depending on how th ewiring is done, there can be a BIG safety issue
