Inverter technology enables you to take it all with you

September 1, 2005 One of the great ironies about inverters is that they are mainly used by people who want to get away from it all, and they use inverters specifically so they can take it all with them. Inverters convert 12volt DC power to AC mains power of the voltage of your choice – just choose the right one. The advantage of having such an energy appliance is that they offer a mains power source in car, caravan, boat … anywhere there’s a 12 volt battery. Using an inverter with standard household appliances provides a much cheaper option than purchasing specialised 12 volt appliances too – 12 volt appliances are generally far more expensive, and you probably already own such an appliance in your home that runs on mains power. The unit which really got us excited about the area of inverters was the new Projecta 2,000 watt inverter which is compact, light weight and incorporates some very special safety features such as allowing appliances to be run with high start-up loads, noise-free filtering, protection against overload, low battery warning, cooling fans and it has two power outlet sockets. On top of all that, there are some appliances they just don’t make in 12 volts – like if you really do need a freshly frothed Cappuccino in the morning, you could take your home coffee machine.
