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

A. ON/OFF Switch. The current flowing from the power source to the inverter is controlled by this switch. B. ON/OFF and protect LED Indicator Light. GREEN will illuminate when turn the inverter ON at normal condition. When the internal operating temperature exceeds 165 °F. this light will turn RED and the inverter will automatically shut down. Immediately turn off the appliance if this occurs The High Speed Cooling Fan automatically activates excessive temperatures are detected. When thi

Selecting A Power Supply. When you operate the inverter for long periods of time combined with a high continuous load demand, the result will be a large power drain from the battery. With this in mind, check the reserve capacity of the battery you plan to use to power your inverter. To calculate the approximate power drain on your battery you will want to estimate the reserve power ("amp/hour") of the battery and the amps the inverter will require, to meet the continuous load demand of the

Connecting Your inverter. 1. Make sure the ON/OFF switch located on the front panel of the inverter is in the OFF(0) position. 2. Connect the cables to the power input terminals at the rear of the Inverter. Make sure to match the negative (Black) terminal on the 12-volt power source first. Then repeat this procedure with the positive (Red) terminal connecting a wire to the positive terminal of the 12V volt power source. Make sure you have good secure connections, but do not over tighten t

Television and Audio Suggestions Although these inverters are shielded and filtered to minimize signal interference, some interference with your television picture may be unavoidable, especially with weak signals. However, here are some suggestions that may improve reception. 1. First, make sure that television antenna produces a clear signal under normal operating conditions. Also, ensure that the antenna cable is properly shielded and of good quality. 2. Change the positions of the inver

How Power Inverters Work. There are two stages in which a power inverter changes the 12 volt DC (or battery) power into 110V AC (household current). STAGE 1: The inverter uses a DC to DC converter to increase the DC input voltage from the power source to 145 volts DC. STAGE 2: The inverter then converts the high voltage DC into 110V AC (household current), using advanced MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) transistors in a full bridge configuration. This design

When operating the inverter with an automobile or marine battery, start the engine every 30 to 60 minutes and let it run for approximately 20 minutes to recharge the battery. In the event of a continuous audible alarm or automatic shut down, turn the inverter OFF immediately. Do not restart the inverter until the source of the problem has been identified and corrected. To avoid battery drain, always disconnect the inverter when not in use. Do not expose the inverter to rain or moisture
