Review on πŸ”Œ BESTEK 2000W Power Inverter with 3 AC Outlets - DC 12V to 110V AC Car Power Converter for Camping and Outdoor Power Supply, ETL Listed by Travis Karren

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good inverter with some minor flaws and fixes

Good inverter able to power my 1600 watt espresso machine and 1500 watt immersion water heater for my upcoming camping trip with no problems. However, since the device is a combination of two 1000W inverters, it requires 2 sets of cables. The cables are included, but they're only 24 inches long, so the inverter has to be somewhere in the engine bay with the hood open. Also trying to fix 4 sets of clips on battery and car frame can be excruciating. I hope Bestek makes some mods in the future, but for now you can inexpensively make these mods yourself. Get a 2 foot length of 2 gauge copper wire from your local hardware store. Cut and connect 2 negative poles together and 2 positive poles together.3. Take a set of 10 foot 2 gauge jumper wires and cut the positive and negative clips off one end.4. Solder the copper eyelet connectors in place of the clips you cut off.5. Now you only have 1 set of cables to connect the inverter to the car battery and the cable is long enough to close the hood and mount the inverter on a picnic table.

Pros
  • A few competitors
Cons
  • Poorly thought out
