 200W PRO Pure Sine Wave 

DC to AC Power Inverter. Elite

 200W PRO represents numerous improvements to 

our standard pure sine that meet the needs of more demanding environments—

delivering clean quality power at an affordable price. It delivers a true sine 

wave AC identical to that of commercial power. Use this inverter to power AC 

appliances in your vehicle or off-grid backup power systems. Pure Sine Wave AC 

means that your sensitive electronics, such as audio/video systems, computers, 

and communications equipment will operate properly. Furthermore, appliances 

with motors operate cooler, quieter, and more efficiently when they are powered 

by sine wave AC.
This inverter is powered from 12 volts DC and it will continuously deliver 200 

watts (400 watts momentary peak) AC power at 120 volts, 60 Hz. Superior 

surge capability of 400 watts allows the inverter to start most difficult motorized 

appliances. Advanced microprocessor-controlled circuits run cooler and are more 

reliable than competing units. The DC terminals have been designed apart from 

each other to ease installation and minimize the risk of accidental shortage when 

handling the DC cables.
The Elite

 200W PRO also operates at high efficiency (up to 90%), that results in 

long run time and extended battery life compared to other inverters with this level 

of power output. Neutral to ground bond, just like utility power.
A 2.1A USB Power Port provides a convenient way to power USB appliances or 

charge smartphones, tablets and e-readers, and other mobile electronic devices.
This Inverter is supplied with a cord that connects the inverter to a DC power 

supply.
The enclosure vents have been minimized to reduce the risk of pest intrusion in 

arid tropical climates. This Wagan Elite

 200W PRO Pure Sine Wave Inverter is 

an indispensable addition to your compliment of mobile power equipment. With 

minimal care and proper treatment, it will provide years of reliable service. 
Read and understand this manual before installing and operating this inverter. 

Keep this manual for future use.
