How much power does a 12V inverter use?

For example: If you're running a 1500W inverter on your 12v battery with 1000 watts of total AC load. So your inverter will be consuming 83 amps (amps = watts/battery volts) from the battery for which you'll need a very thick cable. using a thin cable in this scenario can damage the inverter or you'll not be able to run your load.

How does a portable inverter work?
