Overview
Utilize you vehicle's battery to efficiently power work site power tools, pumps, as well as your laptop computer. Continuously supplies 1250 watts of 120VAC power to (2) AC outlets from any 12VDC battery source. Frequency control locks AC output at 60Hz for operating stability of motor loads and other inductive loads with high current startup requirements.
NOTE: To protect against high current draw that may occur during inverter failure, a fuse link rated at 200a should be positioned no more than 18" from the PV1250FC's battery in the positive line.

Questions & Answers
FC-series inverters are able to support an overpower situation for an hour, so they are better suited for industrial or heavy-duty devices. HF-series inverters are not capable of supporting overpower situations for more than 500 milliseconds.

Yes, we offer Pure Sine Wave Inverters. Visit our Inverters product category and filter for Pure Sine Wave Output. A pure sine wave inverter produces a smooth, sinusoidal AC output with a low level of distortion for better performance. A PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) Wave inverter produces a multi-step AC output that approximates a sinusoidal AC output with a higher level of distortion.
