Do not use the inverter with a product that draws a higher wattage than the 

inverter can provide, as this may cause damage to the inverter and product.
When you turn on a device or a tool that runs on a motor, the device goes 

through two stages: 

1. Start Up – Requiring an initial surge of power (commonly known as the 

“starting” or “peak” load).

2. Continuous Operation – Power consumption drops (commonly known as 

the “continuous” load).

The wattage (WATTS) or amperes (AMPS) can normally be found stamped or 

printed on most devices and equipment, or in the user’s manual. Otherwise, 

contact the manufacturer to find out whether the device you want to use is 

compatible with a modified sine wave.
To calculate the wattage: Wattage = AMPS x 120 (AC Voltage).
To calculate the starting load: Starting Load = 2 x wattage. 
In general, the startup load of the device or power tool determines whether your 

inverter has the capability to power it.
Always run a test to establish whether the inverter will operate a particular piece of 

equipment or device. In the event of a power overload, the inverter is designed to 

automatically shut down. 
This safety feature prevents damaging the inverter while testing devices and 

equipment within the wattage range of the inverter.
