110v inverters in series for 220v?

[ArmedAndDangerous]

I'm pretty sure the answer is no...but I want to ask anyway. Would it be possible to wire two 110v power inverters in series to get 220v? I was thinking maybe I could use the hot wire from both inverters and then use an earth ground as "neutral"?

Here is an old post that covers this topic

There are two problems.  The waveforms would have to be synced to each other and most cheapo inverters can no operate with a battery terminal connected connected to the output.  I am at a loss of how to explain this in less than 2,000 words, but even if you could sync them it wouldn't double the voltage.

some very expensive inverters can be bridged together for 240v operation but they have to be designed to do that from the get go. if you try it with 2 cheep inverters you will get smoke and flames.

 The term is stacking, and yes you can do it, but as previous post they must be set up for this.
