What does a power inverter do? A power inverter converts DC power to AC power. It takes the DC power from your battery or solar panels and converts it to AC power, which is the type of power supplied from your utility company. This allows you plug in AC powered electronics and appliances to your inverter and run them off of battery or solar power.
Modified Sine Wave inverters are more economical and work great for most appliances.
Pure Sine Wave inverters provide the type of power that your utility company provides. They are recommended for sensitive electronics such as newer TV’s and medical devices such as CPAP machines.
Inverter / chargers are also available which is a great option that switches to charging your battery when grid power is available. Ideal in sump pump back up systems and solar applications.
Power inverters come in different voltages and sizes. It is important to calculate the watts you are going to need so that you can properly size your inverter.
Power Inverters are ideal for everything from emergency power supply at home to running power tools in a work truck.
