This power inverter converts DC energy to AC energy to run your AC appliances while you're on the go. Overload and short circuit protection automatically turn off the inverter if the connected load is too high or if the inverter shorts.

  • 1600W peak power (800W continuous power): Provides sufficient power for your AC appliances, such as TVs, VCRs, laptops, power tools, and lights on the go.
  • Two AC power outlets: Allow you to plug in a wide range of electronics.
  • Automatic shutdown/reset protection: The inverter temporarily shuts down to prevent overheating. A cooling fan helps cool the inverter down for efficient operation.
  • Overload and short circuit protection: The inverter automatically powers down if the connected load is too high or if it shorts.
  • USB power port: Allows you to power your USB appliances.

Q: How many times I can charge a dell 15 inspiron 2 in 1 laptop?

A: Hello Kibria, Thank you for your interest in our SlimLine 800W Power Inverter, in regards to your inquiry, we believe there might be some misunderstanding as to what this device does. This device is an inverter that will convert DC 12V power into 120V AC power and will operate and run for as long as the power provided can sustain. The Device needs to be connected to a 12V power Source such as your vehicle's Battery, and the amount of times that the inverter can charge your laptop will depend on the battery size and capacity that the inverter is connected to. (For a Layman's term perspective, it would be like asking how long a Flashlight [that requires batteries] will run. The answer would be: it depends on how long the batteries will last. This is the same for the inverter, the inverter will work always, but it will only power for as long as the battery it is connected to can supply power).

Q: What type of power connection does this come with?

A: There are post terminals on the back of the unit. The package includes a set of red and black jumper cables with battery squeeze clamps.

Q: Can I use it for Christmas lights.

A: If your Christmas lights don't draw more current than this provides.

Q: What is the difference between a modified and a pure sine wave inverter? If I am just looking to run cell phones, tablets and small things like that which is better?

A: Pure sine wave inverters have a "cleaner" sign wave that is required to run some sensitive electronics and some motors. These have a lower harmonic distortion (<3%) that some high end electronic boards like newer furnace boards, high end TVs, newer refrigerators, high end motors, etc. These are more expensive and are not necessary to run simple devices like you describe. Modified sine wave inverters are fine to power simple lower wattage devices such as what you asked about.

Q: Is this device 12volt

A: Yes, it is 12 volt DC/

Q: Could this inverter be permanantly mounted in a vehicle ?

A: Yes! The Slim Line 800 W Power Inverter is designed to allow it to be permanently mounted to your vehicle. Just make sure to that it is protected from the elements (keep it dry) and allow for proper air flow and ventilation so that the inverter does not run the risk of overheating.

Q: Is this unit rechargable or does it have to be plugged up to work ? If so I'm looking for a rechargable unit that's portable for my CPAP machine we would you recommend ?

A: You must have an external 12 volt source like a car battery in order to for this inverter to provide 120 volts required to run your CPAP machine.

Q: Would this be able to power a power reclining sofa all day everyday?

A: As long as the chair isn't pulling more than 7.5 amps you should be good. This unit will support 800w continuous but you will need to keep it from over heating. I don't have any idea at what temp it will overheat. I had the unit under my hood running a computer and monitor for almost 6 hrs and it did fine.
