Mine has a big ass inverter transformer wound with what looks like 1/4"
thick Litz wire (multiple strands to prevent surface effects).

1/4" litz seems crazy to me! A layer of litz 1/4" in diameter or thickness
made from finer litz would make more sense. How many turns are there of this
litz?

Its a Mains transformer..

That is not a surprixe if true. But that would not be used in an inverter
device if low cost were important.
