Deker 3,491 Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 (edited) Does anyone actually have one of these, or the lower powered version of the SAME make? Do you run Microwave or flat screen TV from it, what is your verdict...obviously I'm talking about running it within its power output band, thanks! http://www.amazon.co.uk/converter-appliances-converters-refrigerator-MRI20013/dp/B00CI0PB0E/ref=sr_1_2/278-3404320-4402736?ie=UTF8&qid=1388786495&sr=8-2&keywords=inverters Edited January 3, 2014 by Deker Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ray 185 Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Haven't used one of that make, but I'm a little surprised it comes with a cigarette lighter plug. 2000W is 166 amps at 12V and I am pretty sure most car fuses wouldn't cope with that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
moxy 617 Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 No. I have neither but similar! Yes it will run a small telly which has a low ah demand. ( with modern tv's ) But all will rely on the battery ah you are supplying it with. Some small car battery's just won't cut it. And if your thinking about running a 240v chainsaw or high demand appliance for a good length of time then forget it. You may get some time if the engine is running but it won't be long before the thermal cut out kicks in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deker 3,491 Posted January 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Ok, let me put it another way, this is a Modified Sine Wave Inverter, I have heard comment that it is not happy with Microwave or the new Flat screen TV.Forget the 12V battery supply to it, that will be provided by a minimum of 3 x 125AH batteries, and forget any appliance being over rated for it.Will a Modified Sine Wave Inverter satisfactorily run a Microwave and new style TV?Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reaper1064 285 Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Just googled it mate and the modified sine wave is a cheaper form of pure sine wave so no problems running your stuff. If your not sure search pure sine wave v modified sine wave. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deker 3,491 Posted January 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Just googled it mate and the modified sine wave is a cheaper form of pure sine wave so no problems running your stuff. If your not sure search pure sine wave v modified sine wave. :thumbs: Appreciate. Simple fact is there are those that say Modified Sine Wave Inverter, is a problem with Microwave or the new Flat screen TV and some audio, so I was hoping to find someone who had one of these specifically and could tell me their findings. I know a Pure Sine Wave would be fine, but a 2000w unit will cost me a Minimum of £300, this is £120, hence the questions Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
