An inverter turns battery DC into 120-volt AC. Sizing is where people get burned: a 2000-watt inverter is not a 2000-watt appliance budget once you account for surge draw, efficiency loss, and what your battery bank can actually deliver.

Before you act on any figure
Electrical specifications are model-specific. Confirm every number against the manual for your exact equipment, and treat wire gauge, fuse sizing, and breaker sizing as safety items. When our recommendation differs from your manufacturer's requirement, follow the manufacturer.
