WHAT IS AN INVERTER?
An inverter is an electronic device that converters low voltage DC (Direct
Current) electricity from a battery or other power source to 220 V–240 V AC
(Alternating Current) household power� DC is the power that is produced by
battery or other power source while AC is the standard power needed to run
electrical equipment�

SELECT THE RIGHT WAVEFORM
Pure Sine Wave (PSW)
Modified Sine Wave (MSW)
Modified Sine Wave:
If your equipment can accept some voltage fluctuation,
consider a modified sine wave inverter� These inverters provide mobile power
at a more affordable price and come in a full range of size from handheld
to high performance� Do not use to power sensitive devices such as medical
equipment or computers� Some audio equipment may perform poorly if run
on Modified Sine Wave power�
