Review on BESTEK 150W Power Inverter DC 12V To 110V AC Converter 4 by Jaya Walsh

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Consumes too much power when idle

Idle when nothing is running, this device consumes power. Since there is no on/off switch, this can only be switched off manually. My device, tested with a lab-grade DC power supply set at 12,000V, draws 0.168A or 2.018W. That's quite a large parasitic attraction. It discharges a medium-sized car battery (40 Ah) in about 10 days. Bad design - it should have a sleep mode or at least a power button!

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Crumpled
