It would be good to solidly know the best. I repeat BEST case scenarios and devices and appliances that would do well with a MSW inverter.
@WaganTech
@WaganTech 5 күн бұрын
For most people with occasional use and limited budget, MSW is just fine. If the inverter is being used as the workhorse for sensitive electronics, motor driven devices, or similar, we recommend PSW. Look for ones that are UL/ETL certified for safety and reliability.

I have had an older Vector 3000w 12v MSW inverter since 2007. (Vector was bought out by Coleman) It was the first one I ever got. I paid $70 at a pawn shop. I did use it for a year or so. Mainly at night to power my tv and a couple of lights. As I had 4 12v 100ah marine flooded batteries in parallel. I charged them with solar. I had a meager existence back than. Still do. Lol. I still have it though I have a Xantrex 2000w PSW inverter/charger for day- to-day use. It works beautifully. I have a 1000ah 12v lithium battery bank now. I keep the old vector forca hyst in case scenario. And I'm glad I did because my Xantrex recently had an issue for which it had to go out of service. Good to have a plan B.

If you’re using a high load for a while, you should have the engine running so you don’t kill your battery down. Our inverters have a low power alarm and shut down just in case.

I have a msi gaming laptop. Any truckers out there looking to game out on the road like myself, a modified sine wave will not charge this laptop.

Great reasons. Even all pure sine inverters are not built the same. Wagan Tech pure sine inverters have a less than 3% THD, so they're even cleaner energy. Our inverters are used in military, first responder, and government applications.

Great explanation of what power inverters are. I wish you expanded to explain how they draw on vehicle batteries? Can it be connected to battery with vehicle not running? How much draw on vehicle battery? Do I need to start car once in awhile to keep battery charged? If so, how often. Does it greatly affect battery lifetime expectancy? Lots of questions, I know, regarding effect on battery. I would like you to use a typical 12v vehicle battery as an example. Thanks!

Is the wattage based on the inverter's normal or peak watts?
@WaganTech
@WaganTech Ай бұрын
For Wagan Tech inverters it’s always at normal wattage. Keep in mind that most of our inverters are true rated wattage meaning that you get 100% of the rated power versus many inverters out there will rate at 30% usage time after which it will drop at least 20% of what’s advertised. Hope that helps.

@WaganTech
@WaganTech Ай бұрын
Great question, you should have the engine running if you're running it from the primary (starter) battery. You can also use a DC-DC charger and run an auxiliary (house) battery to run the inverter so you don't wake up to a dead starter battery. We can help with the DC-DC charger as well if you're interested.

@WaganTech
@WaganTech Ай бұрын
@@tubzgames199 Technically yes you can, but depending on the size of your battery, it may run out of juice in the middle of the night. Most inverters out there will have a low voltage warning, so you may get an early alarm buzzer. For reference, a CPAP will use about 60-90watts (<1Amps 110VAC/0.4Amps 220VAC), depending on model. You'll need to calculate the Amp-hours your vehicle battery has in reserve and then know your running time. Hopefully that will add up to at least 8 hours of sleep. Good night and good luck.

Hi , I bought a slimline 1250 watt unit. I had a fuse installed on the positive cable. My inverter made a beeping sound after I used it for a while and shut off. I learned that the fuse was blown so I changed it. It began working again but began beeping after powering a 60 watt bulb for a while. Then it shut off. How can I fix this? Thanks

Technically, there shouldn't be a safety issue, but if your laptop power supply is buzzing, it will mean it'll run hotter and less efficient. You might want to consider upgrading to a Wagan Tech Pure Line inverter if you're able.

With the proper size Wagan Tech inverter, you should be just fine. Just check your AC draw specs (e.g., 10A @ 110V AC input). Your golden formula is Amps * Volts = Watts. Also, make sure your vehicle battery is large enough to support it and/or run your vehicle while you're charging. Feel free to let us know if you have any questions.
