Power Inverters are used in a wide variety of situations to drive tool, equipment and appliances when access to AC power is not readily available. This could include powering electronics within a vehicle, powering grills and portable stereos at a tailgate or on a campout, or powering a backup sump pump during a storm.
Not all power inverters are created equal, though, so it is important to understand your power requirements and match the product you buy to your needs. In addition, it is critical that you look at the entire power delivery system, including your DC power source and input cables, when considering your inverter installation and usage.
