Car friends asked: "Is it necessary to install a high-power inverter?" How to choose the right one?

A rider replied: "No need, the car with a low-power inverter can be."

There are car friends said: "Playing cars will have the same comfort as home, especially for the car friends who often drive, long distances to remote places, do a delicious meal is very necessary." In particular, many motorists use low-power inverters connected through the car cigarette lighter interface, and such inverters generally have a maximum power of no more than 150W, which is unable to meet the needs of high-power appliances. Now get a high-power inverter, when you need to stop can be directly connected to the original car battery, idle power. Buy a small electric pressure cooker, cook a meal in one or twenty minutes, add a 120Ah lithium battery, cook 6-7 times, you can do some simple dishes, feel at home at any time."

Some say that there is no need for inverters, some say that it must be, why there is such a contrast, the inverter engineer introduced: this actually depends on our electricity demand, the general car 12V battery can only allow small power appliances to work normally, such as 12V refrigerators, LED lights, ventilation fans, TV. If you want to use high-power electrical appliances such as rice cookers, microwave ovens, electric kettles, and induction stoves, you need inverters.

Inverter is to convert the car 12V low-voltage DC to 220V AC, to provide stable AC for the electrical appliances in the car, most of the common inverters are 1000W, 2000W, 3000W, so how to choose a suitable inverter?

This depends on the power of the actual load in the car, such as air conditioners, refrigerators and other high-power appliances, the starting current is equivalent to 3-9 times the normal working current, it is necessary to choose a larger inverter. Take 3000W as an example. You need to use the load inside the car at the same time, their total rated power does not exceed 2800W, then 3000W is to ensure stable current. Because the inverter can not run at full load for a long time, it will greatly shorten the life of the inverse, so it is best to use in the state of not exceeding 80% of the rated power.
