500W Power Inverter DC 12V to 110V AC Car Converter with Digital Display

500W Power Inverter DC 12V to 110V AC Car Converter with Digital Display 


I liked this power inverter so much, I just ordered another one for my wife's car.

This inverter gives you feedback on voltage input, voltage output, and wattage being used. I love that. You can instantly tell if the battery is too low to keep going. For example, a weak battery might register 11 volts. Maybe you ought to start the car to get the voltage up. If voltage drops below 10, the unit will not work. This unit tells you why it will not work.

Another great feature is that it is very quiet. No fan running when wattage is below 150 watts, which is what it usually is when using through power adapter inside the car to charge phones and keep laptops going.

There are two AC plugs and two USB plugs. The only negative I have about the unit is that the AC plugs fit very tight. It is hard to push them on. But that is very minor compared to all the pro's about the unit.

I hooked it to battery directly with provided cables and it easily ran a drill. The drill peaked out over 500 watts, but when running steady, it drew just 310 watts according to the meter on this unit. The instant feedback on the power really helps.

The case is very high quality plastic. I like this much better than the aluminum cases.

The item came in a very nice box that I can use to store it in along with instruction manual and spare fuses. Four spare fuses are provided: two for the power adapter and two for inside the unit.

The instruction manual is very good, briefly giving all the information you need to know about using this unit. If you are hesitant, don't be. I have used many inverters, and this one is a very good buy and performs great. See my attached photos for seeing the packaging, some pages from the instruction manual, and the readout from the unit when running a tablet inside the car and when running a drill outside the car, directly connected to the battery. Whenever using the unit for wattage that exceeds 150 watts, it should be connected directly to the battery to prevent blowing fuses in your car. Another great reason to get an inverter with some kind of readout concerning how much wattage your device or devices are drawing.
