You can use a 12 volt dc/ac power inverter to power AC devices from your truck, car, RV, or boat by attaching the power inverter to your battery, DC power source, or cigarette lighter or 12 volt accessory outlet. Generally, most vehicles can handle up to a 300W dc power inverter with no problem. You can use it to power such things as TVs, computers, cell phones, camcorders, video games, tools, etc. DC/AC Power inverters allow you to use AC powered devices just like you were at home - as long as you are careful not to exceed the wattage rating of the power inverter. Currently, we only handle 12V Power Inverters. We sell Xantrex power inverters, Whistler, Cobra, Sima, and Vector power inverters. We have these products in stock. The best type of battery to use with a power inverter over 300 watts is a deep-cycle lead acid battery, these are typically found on an RV, boat, or golf cart. An alternative term for these are RV battery, marine battery, or golf cart battery. A typical car battery will not be able to handle more than a 300W power inverter, so, inverters over 300W do not normally come equipped with a cigarette lighter adapter. Additionally, many car cigarette lighter circuits are fused at 20 Amps, meaning you won't get more than 200 Watts out of it without blowing your fuse. Deep-cycle batteries are usually rated by reserve capacity, or ampere-hours. We include both measurements on our chart which will give you a fair idea as to how long a given battery could last with a power inverter. Keep in mind batteries can always be used in parallel (+ to +, and - to -) giving twice the capacity. Do not wire batteries in series as this will increase voltage making it too high, but not capacity. If you have any questions on your product selection, please call us at the toll free number listed above so we can help you pick the right power inverter for your needs.
