The inverter has been great for a few months, the bundled remote is a really useful inclusion. Unfortunately the other day it went bang. The unit is supplied with 4x35amp spare fuses, you have to open the case to replace them (all four had blown). Sadly as soon as I powered the unit back up (with no load connected of course), the fuses all blew immediately. I’d recommend using a 100A circuit breaker with this so at least if such a fault develops the unit’s own fuses don’t blow and you can investigate further. Amazon have arranged a refund under manufacturer warranty with no quibble, so I’ll probably try another unit now.
This review is after some heavy initial testing, so I don’t have sturdiness. It feels OK and I’m likely to buy a 3500W one later.
What you might need to know:
Yes it’s a sine. How pure I don’t know, because I can’t measure THD, but it will run motors and the Wahl clippers which don’t like “modified sine” inverters. I’m happy with it.
It has a capacitor of around 20,000 uF on the input. You will get a fat spark when first connecting it, and that is something to think about for your switches and fuses. The terminals are M6 with fair coverage for avoiding shorts, but I would like a boot on the positive. The chassis is mostly isolated from DC but seems to have coupling capacitors to live and/or neutral – with respect to DC-ve it runs 0.8Vac open circuit / 2.78mA AC short.
Will it run a 1000W fan heater? Yes. The lugs on the supplied cable get rather warm so you may want to upgrade.
Will it run a TIG welder? Sort of, but this rig wants 230W for cooling and there’s not much headroom out of 1000W. I can run 45A out, but at 47A the welder shuts down or at 55A the arc won’t strike and the inverter shuts down. This is not unexpected.
Will it run a cheap “850W” angle grinder? Just about / YMMV depending on the type of grinder. The start current is high enough for the inverter to brown out, which trips my grinder’s power lockout. The trick is to start the grinder once, then off and on again while it’s still spinning to get it up to speed. After that, sparks are flying in the right way.
The remote panel runs an extra 4mA (from 12V) when “off” and 25mA when on with full voltage.
In a tight space, you may want extra cooling. The little fans probably aren’t going to cope with summer or being near a hot engine. Also they are not spider-proof.
The undervoltage alarm has two states and both will recover when voltage goes back up enough. One-beep below 10.5V recovers at 11.0V; two-beep shutdown at 10V and idle current drops from about 0.8A to 0.14A, then recovers at 12.9V – note it can still thoroughly kill a lead acid battery if you don’t intervene. This isn’t a problem with the inverter.
Finally, do consider what happens if you’re unfortunate enough to melt the PVC insulation anywhere along that +ve lead. Whatever it touches will be either flammable or grounded, so things will get exciting fast.
it works as it should no problems setting up plug and play
if i need another inverter i would go for same make just a higher wattage this in nothing to do with the 1kw inverter as it works well just if you think you need 1kw then buy a 2kw etc.
The remote control is great if you have installed the inverter where its hidden or hard to reach also the battery bar is great for seeing how much is left in the batteries. The fans on the inverter are quiet but can be heard if depending on where this inverter is installed.
This inverter means I no longer needed to run an extension cable to my shed for power.
