Pure Sine Car Power Inverters

Pure Sine Car Power Inverters for Mobile Power When You Need It

If you want to be able to charge your phone in your car or run appliances in your semi truck, consider an affordable pure sine power inverter from eBay in new or pre-owned condition. To find a pure sine wave inverter that works for you, check out this basic information on these convenient devices.

Power inverters are devices that change the DC power produced by battery banks into AC power output that can be used by most electronic devices. Pure sine inverters create electrical signals that conform to a uniform sine wave shape, and this signal shape makes it so that these inverters won't damage your electronics. When you use a pure sine inverter, you'll find that your fans make less noise, your microwaves run cooler, and your audio amplifiers produce less random noise. Since pure sine wave inverters are relatively small and compact, you can mount them in your car or truck without difficulty. They are also common components of photovoltaic arrays in RVs and boats.

The pure sine wave inverters on eBay produce a wide variety of different amounts of electricity. The amount of output electricity produced by one of these inverters is measured in watts, and it should be noted that all power inverters have both peak wattage ratings and standard wattage ratings. Some common standard wattages include:

• 1,000 watts
• 1,500 watts
• 3,000 watts
• 3,500 watts
• 5,000 watts
• 8,000 watts

The most important variable to consider as you pick out an affordably priced pure sine wave inverter is how much electricity you want to be able to draw. Most appliances only draw a few hundred watts each, but microwaves and laser printers can draw wattages in the thousands. Collect all of the items that you'll want to plug into your inverter and add up the maximum wattage of each to determine the size of power inverter you'll need. You'll also want to consider the size of your power bank. If you have less than 100 amp hours to spare, a maxed-out 8,000-watt inverter would be overkill, but this type of model might be perfect if you have a 500 amp hour battery array.
