Power inverters, wattage information, what do you recommend?

Usually you double the wattage to account for the starting requirements of something. That microwave will try to pull 1400 watts for a few moments until it settles down. Maybe not, but usually anything with big draw or motors will do the same thing on wattage demand.

Get the biggest inverter you can find. 3000 watts range or higher. That way you don't burn out the wee ones via heat in a short time trying to drive something that drinks too much wattage from it.

 

I’m not sure if I’m going to say this correctly or not, but look for a syne (sp?) inverter... as I understand it, they provide “cleaner” power... not sure how that plays out ... maybe easier on electronics... but those are supposed to be better units all the way around.

Sorry that I can’t provide brands.

 

Yes, a Pure Sine Wave inverter is best.
I have a 2,000 watt. Even the microwave runs quieter on it compared to the cheaper modified sine wave one I had before.

 

Yes... that’s it...
Pure Sine Wave!!!
Thanks... I was totally blank.

 

Rv, industry makes better than truck stop

 

Believe it or not the 2000 watt inverter from harbor freight has been great! I use it on my TV, chargers, electric blanket, etc..

 

Is it Pure Sine Wave too?
I normally like HF products.

 

Yes it is but it is a Chinese version... seems to work great tho

 

Isn’t everything a Chinese Version???
