:Angry:Just went today to maplins to buy haly price 300w inverter the assistant asked what i was going to use it on,after i told him it was to power a sky box he said it would fry the inverter within hours,Road pro said 100w or 150w would be fine.Nothing like confusing a bloke. :Confused:

Hi squire i defo did not misunderstand him nor him i. I did plenty of reserch before going down that route.Squire;442282nd him said:Why should it 'fry' the inverter? At 300w's it's well on top of the job.
Maybe you misunderstood him - or he misunderstood you ....

A 300w inverter is plenty to run your sky box, even if it is really only 150w as Geo suggests. Some assistants in Maplins are very good but some others don't have a clue. Unfortunately their ignorance does not prevent them issuing advice, however innappropriate.:Angry:
The ordinary Sky box on our 'backup' TV is rated at a maximum of 30w. I can't check the Sky+ HD box as Shirley is watching the tennis and I won't be popular pulling it out to look, but I would expect that might be a bit but not a lot more.
