The
SURGE (STARTING) WATTAGE
is the amount of power that a device consumes at start-
up for a limited period of time (2–3 seconds). Some devices (e.g. induction motors of drills
and fans) may have a start-up surge of 3 to 7 times the rated wattage.

IMPORTANT!
The wattages given on next page are estimates. The actual wattage required for your devices
may differ from those listed. Be sure to chec
wattage requirements on the rating
label and in the operating instructions of devices to be used.
The power inverter can supply momentary surge power that is higher (800 W) than its
maximum power rating (400 W). Some products with a rated wattage lower than the
maximum power rating for your power inverter may still exceed the power inverter's surge
capability and trigger an overload shutdown.
Products rated with the following power and surge ratings or less can be connected to the
power inverter.
NOTE: Power requirements for product examples are estimates only. To calculate the wattage
of a product, use the following equation: amperage x 115.
