Unbox and install Victron Energy Phoenix Inverter 12/1200 VA

[@ivanbenkocky3290]

victron 12 / 1200 VA is rated for optimal constant power at 25°C / 40°C = 1000W / 850W and maximum power "for a short period of time" is 2200W. So thermomixer is 1500 wats . If 2200 watt is 100% then 1500 wats is 68,19%.

I’ve been using that inverter for almost 5 years On 24x7 - just yesterday had its first glitch - buying new one in a few days

Yes, I also like mobile apps through bluetooth interface. Im using more mppt solar charger.

Nice video. little help for all. 1 example how to calculate consumption. Could be usefull for solar nerds. 1 minute = 0,0167 hour. So lets say you want to cook soap which takes 20 minutes with electric cooking pan which operates with 320 watt. So lets say 320 wats x (0,0167*20 minutes) = 320 x 0,334 = 106 Wh from power bank or solar station. It could be lower when you turn off and on device when it must be done because of big babbling, lets say 100 Wh. How much time is needed to "top 100 Wh back" to your battery or solar power station? 100 watt panel = 1 hour 200 watt panel = 30 minutes formula for calculation ( 0,0167*30minutes*200 watt power from solar panel =100 wh) 300 watt panel = 20 minutes 400 watt panel = 15 minutes 500 watt panel = 12 minutes 600 watt panel = 10 minutes 700 watt panel = 8,5 minutes 800 watt panel = 7,5 minutes 900 watt panel = less than 7 minutes 1000 watt panel = 6 minutes 2 example Lets say you have electric water heater with power of 1000 wats which in reality has 1057 watt power. Water boiling 1057 wats for 2 minutes. 1 minute = 0.0167. So how to calculate used energy? 1057 wats x ( 2 minutes *0,0167) = 1057 * 0,0334 = 35,31 Wh from battery has been taken. With 100 watt solar panel you need 21 minutes to top up 35,31 WH back to battery . Formula : 100*( 21*0,0167) = 35,07 Wh

Świetna sprawa. Ja testuję wersję 48/500. Na 48v pod akumulator z ebike'a.

Tak, bardzo porządne urządzenie, dorzuciłem teraz jeszcze ładowarke solarną mppt victrona i wszystko razem nabrało jeszcze więcej sensu.

Hi , you Mentioned you used 100Ah battery instead of 150Ah like the manual advises. I also want to use 1x100ah battery with this inverter and power a 1200w nespresso machine. Do you think this would work? I have a 100ah lithium battery with a max discharge of 200ah at

[@MercedesOffRoadClub]

I think Victron places reasonable values in manuals, so that battery life is preserved. A stronger inverter is probably supposed to deliver power to more demanding devices, so if you want to have reasonable working time that's also the case of that min 150Ah. But I also think that it could be different for agm or lithium. There are both batteries but they are both different animals inside. For lithium this max Ah probably could be lower as it can deliver higher current and can be discharged lower. This higher Ah for 1200VA version also corresponds to possible higher current demand. I have it connected to my 100Ah agm exide dual battery and so far it works, but after I installed it I did not push it to any limit. I always wanted to have one and during my very recent 3 weeks trip to Nordkapp I used it only to charge my laptop and electric shaver, what a shame. For me the absolute game changer was solar installation, this is a great helping hand for keeping the battery charged (in sunny conditions obv). After all if you connect it to your 100Ah what can go wrong? You will reduce battery life by a few percent? and maybe not even at all, you can always replace it, that's just a battery ;)

@@MercedesOffRoadClub thanks for your feedback. Just fyi, so i connected it to my 100ah yesterday and connected the nespresso 1200-1310w , i made two coffees no problem, the inverter didnt even work hard. So yes i agree with you, the battery life may be shortened a little but still does what its supposed to do, also dont use this everyday only on overlanding trips etc. So far so good :)

Hello what's the max dc current on the lable at the bottom of that inverter

[@MercedesOffRoadClub]

Not more than 200A. There is internal 200A DC breaker which is not replaceable.

What mixer machine ia that never seen one in Mexico or Usa
