which inverter? (1 Viewer)

[Richard n Ann]

Thanks,
Will take a look, does it plug directly into cigarette 12 v lighter socket?

Graham

It would if you fitted a plug, ours was ex demo so didn't come with one. The rating is 200w continuous so that's 16 amps ish.

Thanks,
The form factor of the bestek may suit me better as I think it might juuuuust fit behind my avtex TV.

Thanks for the recommendation though.

Has a handy wired remote on off switch.

The remote switch is for the 230vac circuit, the inverter itself is still turned on and using power until disconnected.

I am looking to buy an inverter to charge up my e-bike battery. my question is can I use the inverter while travelling or does the engine have to be turned off.

Yes. Indeed, it would be better to be running the engine, to maintain a good battery charge.

Thought it would be just needed a second opinion. Thanks for the reply

2 x 90ah batteries..... You won't run much off that so pointless buying a 2000w inverter.
Your sky box will run happily on a 150w inverter and OK with your batteries unless you're offgrid for extended periods and no practical means to recharge.

I used to run my old sky box on a small 150w inverter which cost me about 20 quid and plugged straight into a cig lighter socket. this wasn't a sky plus box though but I doubt that they use much more power.
