1000 Watt Car Power Inverter 12V DC to 110V/120V AC Converter 2000W Peak, 2 AC Outlets & 5V USB 3.0 Ports, Car Plug in Adapter Outlet Supplies Power to Appliances in Truck RV Boat Camping

I decided to give this cheap Chinese inverter a shot, and did not have very high expectations given the low price. In fact, I figured I'd probably end up blowing it up with the loads I would try to run on it. At first I just plugged it into the cigarette lighter and it had the ability to run a soldering iron or a heat gun.. or a small compressor, if it was started from an empty tank (no pressure) but it would fault out around 35 psi and give up. At that time I used it mainly for fast charging via 120v for my phone, laptop as well as other miscellaneous USB charging (USB power is available even when unit is off so long as connected to 12v power) Then a buddy showed me his little 500w inverter, and it powered all kinds of power tools and his compressor.. I couldn't believe it.. I wondered why this unit wasn't able to handle such a load.. I then began to experiment. Hooking the inverter directly to the battery with beefier Guage cables, I tried running the same equipment as he did.. and it worked without issue. With the vehicle running it powers Angle grinders, Med compressor, even a Sewer Snake (Ridgid K-7500 and General Speedrooter Model 90) It's seriously impressive and far surpassed my expectations, and comes in handy when off roading. I've had the first one for about 3½-4 months and it's still going strong, so I bought another for my service truck. It's only been about 2 weeks, but it's kicking some serious @$$. I'm very happy with this unit. Even if it burns out tomorrow, I'd feel like I got my money's worth and I'd probably buy 3 more. I would definitely recommend you give this little guy a shot. It puts my old $400 3500w inverter to shame, and it's only 1/3 the size!

I received it on time, packed very well, plugged it in, it worked great in all the ports. A little noisy, but that is fairly normal, they have to cool. I have used it to charge my phone , run a small fridge cooler in my truck, and used it for a plug -in 14 inch oscillating fan when working outside in the heat. Came in very handy! So far, all good.

Bueno

PLEASE understand and read about these things before you purchase one. There are different types that do different things. It doesn't just magically solve all your power needs. Once you figure that stuff out, you will then know what this can and cannot power. I purchased this because I do a lot of tailgating and like to power my crockpot with my world famous chili! It's got more than enough power to get that baby nice and piping hot. Again, read up on inverters and find out the differences. This is a MODIFIED sine wave. Which means it only works for certain types of things. ENJOY!

I bought this to use on a mini-solar generator rig. It's a nice design, compact, light weight, the fan is a little noisy but for my intended use was a non-issue. The problem I have with these units is inconsistent voltage. I have a pair of 128AH 12v deep cycle batteries run in parallel being charged by 2 (100w) solar panels. When I'm not using the generator for mobile power jobs, it sits and I have a set of smart chargers on each inverter to charge the 12v batteries in my toys (pair of jetski's & a RZR). Most of the time the chargers are in maintenance so there is little to no load on the rig. However, depending on the state of the 12v supply to the inverters, depends on how much voltage you get on the other side. If my batteries are at 11.5v, I get about 115v off the inverter. If they batteries are at 13.6v, I get 130v out of the inverter. Any electrical device that has an "over/under volt protection" built into it will reject using power from these inverters, again, depending on the 12v supply to the inverter. I'm going to have to step up to a more sophisticated unit in order to be totally universal. I need an inverter that has a stricter control on it's output voltage, and not just dump everything it can at the outlet. 130v is pretty obscene on the high end. It should stop at 122v at the very least. Wish i could send these back. For the price on a pair, I could have just gone with a nicer unit for a little more.

Works great for our 21ft motorhome. A good power source for lights, water pump, refrigerator, TV and microwave oven. Also an air conditioner. Of course, we do not run all of these at the same time.

Buenísimo justo lo que necesitaba

I tested it with a blender from our kitchen (a device with less than 400W power consumption). I started with slow speeds and gradually increased the speed of my blender. Some chemical smell started to come out (at that point I wasn't sure where it was coming from; inverter or blender?). At top speed inverter suddenly died (both output and the display). I unplugged the blender and tried to restart the inverter with no load; it's still completely dead. That means only one thing; blown fuse (inside). So that horrible design inverter (supposed to handle continuous 1000 Watts) can't even handle 400 W. It went back immediately. Yet it got worse; I plugged my 7 years old blender to wall outlet - it's completely dead as well. I opened it up; yes, that burnt smell was unfortunately coming from my blender. It has a switch-mode power supply design inside. Although it's only driving a motor (shouldn't be such sensitive load as an audio-video electronic device). But still, wave-shape output of this horrible inverter caused blender power supply to fry. Output of that inverter had to be square-wave (not even a simulated sinus-wave). Killing my blender; this inverter caused an additional loss for me. Stay completely clear from this (there are also few very similar looking ones - they ought to be same design - don't go with them as well). I returned it and bought a much better model with pure sine wave output and real 1300 W output.

good price, tested with 500w continuous usage no issue. But it's very noisy, once inverter turn on, the fan run in full speed, you know ... At less power consumption, there shouldn't much heat generated and should be in quite mode. If only use usb the fan will not on, but if that case a tiny cigarette charger will work for me.

Fonctionne très bien, très satisfait. A voir avec le temps.

Works great had no problems till my mom spilt ice cream on it and it stop working obviously, because there was ice cream spilled on it.

Very well constructed product. The display is a fantastic feature. When using it make sure you check the wattage of the device or devices you're plugging into it. Don't go over 800 watts even thou it is rated for 1000 watts because you should only use 80 % of the rated watts. We plugged a 1200 watt coffee maker into it and the leads started to smoke. It works very well if you stay under the rated watts! Very happy with this product!

you can't really do 1000w with this, because the cable will burn
