Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Duracell® Inverter 1500! The
Duracell® 1500 has been designed to give you quality power, ease of use,
and reliability.
Please take a few moments to read this chapter to familiarize yourself
with the main performance features and protection features of the
Duracell® 1500.
Quality Power
The Duracell® 1500 is a quality inverter designed for recreational vehicle
(RV) and truck applications.
• The Duracell® 1500 provides up to 1500 watts of continuous power.
It is designed to handle loads such as 1000-watt microwaves, TVs,
VCRs, and midsized power tools.
• The Duracell® 1500’s high surge capability (3000 W) lets you handle
many hard-to-start loads, including large TVs and small refrigerators.
• The Duracell® 1500’s low standby battery demand means you don’t
have to worry about excessive drain on your battery if you leave the
inverter on for a few days. When the Duracell® 1500 is on but no
power is being supplied to a load, the inverter draws less than 300 mA
from the battery.
• The cooling fan in the inverter is thermally activated and comes on
when the Duracell® 1500 becomes warm. The fan turns off
automatically after the inverter has cooled.
