ABOUT THIS INVERTER
This power inverter converts 12 volts, direct current (12V DC) to 115 volts
alternating household current (115V AC). It easily powers TV/VCR combinations,
small microwave ovens, and refrigerators. It also operates at high efficiency (up to
90%) that results in long running time and extended battery life compared to other
inverters with this level of power output.
This inverter has the highest surge capability in its class. Superior surge capability
of 2,000 watts allows the inverter to start most difficult motorized appliances.
Advanced microprocessor-controlled circuits run cooler and are more reliable than
competing units.
