FAQs
What battery and BMS size do I need for my inverter
The XTM 3000W Inverter should be used with a battery (or multiple batteries wired in parallel) where the combined total BMS rating is ≥300A.
What plugs can I use with my inverter?
The XTM 3000W Inverter features two 12.5A outlets which will accept both standard 10A plugs and larger 15A style plugs.
What appliances can this inverter run?
This inverter is suitable for induction cooktops, coffee machines and hair dryers.
How much power does this inverter provide?
It delivers 3000W of continuous power with a 6000W peak surge.
Is this inverter safe for sensitive electronics?
Yes, it features pure sine wave output for running sensitive electronics.
What batteries can I use with this inverter?
It is compatible with 12V Lithium and AGM batteries.
What is the input voltage range?
The input voltage range is 10.5–15.5V.
How many outputs does this inverter have?
It includes 2 x 240V AC outputs and 1 x USB Type-A output.
What safety features are included?
It includes under-voltage, over-voltage, output-overload, short circuit and over-temperature protection.
Does it have a cooling system?
Yes, it features silent cooling fans.
Can I connect a remote switch?
Yes, it has a remote switch port, with the remote switch sold separately.
What is the efficiency rating?
The inverter has a maximum efficiency of 90%.
Does the inverter use power even when nothing is plugged in?
Yes. If the inverter is left ON, it will slowly drain your battery even with no load. Always switch it OFF when not in use to avoid a flat battery.
Are there any special installation or ventilation requirements?
Leave at least 5 cm of space around the inverter and make sure hot air can escape from the installation area so it stays cool and works properly.
Why did my inverter shut down even though my battery looked full?
This usually means the battery or BMS is undersized, the cables are too thin or too long, or the voltage dropped under load. The inverter will shut down to protect itself.
Do I need a fuse between the battery and the inverter?
Yes it is highly recommended. A fuse protects your battery and wiring if there’s a short circuit or fault. The XTM Inverter Universal Wiring Kit (sold separately) includes a prewired fuse.
Can I run multiple appliances at the same time?
Yes, as long as the total power of all appliances combined does not exceed the inverter’s rated wattage. If you exceed it, the inverter will shut down to protect itself.
Is it normal for the inverter to feel hot?
Yes. Inverters generate heat during use, especially at higher loads. This is normal, as long as there is good ventilation and airflow around the unit.
Why does this inverter have cooling fans, and when do they run?
The cooling fan is temperature controlled. It only runs when needed, which reduces noise, saves power, and helps the inverter last longer compared to always‑on fans.
Can I connect the inverter to mains power?
No. This inverter must never be connected to grid power. Connecting mains power to the inverter’s AC outlets will instantly damage the unit and is dangerous.
Why does the inverter show power but the appliance doesn’t work properly?
Some appliances draw more power than shown on the label or have high startup loads. This can cause the inverter to protect itself and shut down.
Why does the inverter spark slightly when connected?
A small spark during first connection is normal and caused by internal components charging.
