PROwatt Sine Wave Inverter

Our Review
The new PROWatt SW inverter from Xantrex is a compact true sine wave inverter. This inverter is perfect for powering Cameras, cell phones, computers and other portable equipment. The inverter measures 3.5 x 8.7 x 13.4" for the 1000 Watt model, which makes it small enough to fit in many places without taking up valuable space. This inverter is easy to use and easy to install, just grab some Heavy Duty Inverter Cables and connect to your battery.

PROWatt inverters come in 800, 1000 and 2000 watt versions

One neat feature of the PROWatt is the USB port which is a convenient way to charge devices with USB connections. There are also dual GFCI outlets.

Costs around $225 for the 600, $400 for the1000, and $530 for the 2000.

To pick an inverter there are two questions. First, what AC appliances are you going to run? Add up the wattage for each appliance and chose an inverter that delivers more watts of continuous power. It is no good having a 1000 watt inverter if the appliances you run eat up more than 1000w (assuming they are running at the same time). A 7 amp microwave @ 115V will need 805 watts, using Volts x Amps = Watts.

You will need to calculate starting up watts in the total watt calculations. A 100 watt TV may use 500 watts at startup. If you do not have those 500 watts available, the TV will not start.

Second you need to make sure you battery bank can handle this load. If the bank does not hold enough amps, you will quickly drain them.

Xantrex offer on their web site an ” inverter calculator ” which helps you match the loads and requirements with your battery bank.
