Review on ๐Ÿ’ก Tripp Lite Power Compact Inverter PV3000HF: 3000W, 12VDC, 120V, 4-Outlets for RVs, Trucks & Emergency Vehicles by Russ Charmin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Powerful, not very efficient

Excellent inverter, no problem. It's not a pure sine wave, but it will power everything I put on it except microwaves. Electronics, TV, Xbox everything works fine. I had a large water pump that turned off my 2000 watt Honda. I use 4 deep cycles with thick cable (double 4/0) to get full power. A little smaller and it's just a bigger 2000w inverter. One downside is that it's inefficient for light workloads. When it is on, it will always run out of batteries. Six to eight amps. It has an adjustable power sensor that lowers the voltage when there isn't enough load and should be more efficient. I've never gotten this to work, and Xantrex does it automatically. My mini fridge could be left running over the weekend for those on a deep cycle. This drains four deep cycles in 36-48 hours.
