Portable Power Inverters
Portable power inverters are a compact and easy to install electronic device that lets you take any appliance that requires a 12V connection and convert it to 240V like a power socket at home. This makes light work of charging things like laptops, tablets, and phones that don't accept 12V power. This can come in handy for travellers and people that enjoy the great outdoors.
What is a power inverter?
Power inverters (or inverters as they are commonly known) are used to change power sources from direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). They can be used anywhere from the house, work station or campground, and can be extremely helpful for directing power to all kinds of appliances and devices. The inverter does not produce any power itself, but instead the power is provided by the DC source, and the AC frequency that's obtained is largely dependent on the device supplied.
What are the different sizes of power inverters?
Inverters come in a range of sizes that BCF have on offer, starting from the compact 150W, perfect for use in the car and smaller devices, through to the convenient 350 and 800 watters, providing you that extra power for larger appliances.
Inverters come with 2 ratings—a peak and a continuous rating—that you can use to help select the correct size (work out the draw of energy for each appliance used and the inverter should be roughly twice the size). The peak rating is the maximum load that a power inverter will be able to handle for a brief period of time, while the continuous rating signifies how much draw can be placed on the inverter for longer periods.
