Multiply: AMPS X 110 (AC voltage) = WATTS This formula yields a close approximation of the continuous load of your appliance Multiply: WATTS X 2 = Starting Load This formula yields a close approximation of the starting load of your appliance. Most often the start up load of the appliance or power tool determines whether your inverter has the capability to power it. To determine whether the inverter will operate a particular piece of equipment or appliance, run a test. The inverters are d

A. ON/OFF Switch. The current flowing from the power source to the inverter is controlled by this switch. It does not control the current flowing from the inverter to the appliance. B. Overload LED Indicator Light. If the continuous power draw of the appliance(s) being operated exceeds 2000 watts, this light will turn Red and the inverter will automatically Power off. When this occurs turn off the inverter and determine the cause of the overload before turning the inverter and the applian

1. When calculating the amp/hour of the battery, find its “reserve minutes" rating. This is typically is marked on the battery label along with the "Cold Cranking Amps" (CCA) rating. If you multiply the reserve minutes rating of the battery by 0.3 it will tell you the battery amp/hour. 2. To estimate the maximum battery power the inverter will require to run a piece of equipment or appliance, divide its continuous load wattage equipment by 10. 3. Conclusion: The reserve power of a battery

to the possibility of sparking, however, it is extremely important that both the inverter and the 12 volt battery be positioned far from any possible source of flammable fumes or gases. Failure to heed this warning could result in fire or explosion. 3. Locate the Ground Lug Terminal at the rear of the inverter. Run a wire from this terminal to a proper grounding point using the shortest practical length wire as recommended on the last page of this manual. You can connect this wire to the ch

Operating a Microwave oven with Your Power Inverter The power rating used with microwave ovens is the "cooking power" which qualifies as the power being "delivered" to the food being micro waved. The actual operating power requirement rating is higher than the cooking power rating. This is usually referenced on the back of the microwave. If the operating power requirement cannot be found on the back of the microwave, check the owner's manual or contact the manufacturer. Safety Precauti

The modified sine wave produced by our inverters has a root mean square (RMS) voltage of 110 volts. The majority of AC voltmeters are calibrated for RMS voltage and assume that the measured waveform will be a pure sine wave. Consequently, these meters will not read the RMS modified sine wave voltage correctly and, when measuring the inverter output, the meters will read about 20 to 30 volts too low. To accurately measure of the output voltage of the inverter, u

Troubleshooting PROBLEM: Low or No Output Voltage Reason: Poor contact with lighter socket or battery clamps Solution: Unplug and reinsert 12 volt plug or reattach battery clamps. Reason: Using incorrect type of voltmeter to test output voltage. Solution: Use true RMS reading meter.

PROBLEM: TV Does Not Work Reason: TV does not turn on. Solution: Try turning the inverter ON/OFF/ON. Contact TV manufacturer for start up surge specifications and/or to see if the TV is compatible with a modified sine wave. A larger inverter may be required. SPECIFICATIONS: Max.
