How does Energizer 500 watt power inverter work?

Energizer 500 watt power inverter - get power on the go! This newly redesigned light duty power inverter connects directly to a 12 Volt DC battery through your cigarette lighter - power port or with alligator clips for a direct to battery connection to power laptops, cell phone chargers, small electronic devices and more.

How do I connect a power inverter to a 12V battery?

Connect the inverter to a 12V battery with the standard cables provided with product, and plug your AC devices into the inverter. Please do not leave the power inverter in the ON position while your car is off. Disconnect the positive battery terminal before doing any wiring to the inverter.

Can I use a 200Ah battery for a 1500W 12V inverter?

For the 1500W 12V inverter, we suggest you use a 200Ah battery to power the loads. Small battery may cause low voltage protection. Don't use it for high rating power appliance above 1500W. Don't run at max 1500W power load for long time.

How much power does a 12 volt inverter use?

There is a simple method to calculate how much power your inverter is using: For 12-volt inverters, divide the connected load by 10; for 24-volt inverters, divide by 20. Example: How much does an inverter consume with a 400 W load connected? For a 12 V inverter such as a Mass Sine 12/1200, consumption will be 400/10 = approx. 40 amps.

How long can a 12 volt battery run a 1500 watt inverter?

A 12 volt 50Ah lithium iron phosphate (LiFP04) battery with regular depth of discharge (DoD) of 80% will run a fully-loaded 1500 watt inverter for 13 minutes. The calculation incorporates typical pure sine wave inverter efficiency of 95%.

Which power inverter is best for small appliances?

This 600W DC 12V to AC120V Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter is ideal for most small power appliances. It comes with dual sockets Output and a DC 5V 2Amp USB Output.
