Review on πŸ”Œ PowerDrive PD1500 1500W Power with Bluetooth Inverter: Optimal Performance and Bluetooth Connectivity by Mark Bennett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good block and performance but modified sine wave

As far as I can tell, a key factor in the successful use of a modern inverter is the quality of its waveform. An inverter that produces a "pure sine wave" should be able to power almost anything. Inverters that produce a "modified sine wave" are generally cheaper and ideal for RESISTIVE LOADS such as heaters and incandescent lights. However, annoying problems can arise when powering normally silent AC motors such as refrigerators. Additionally, a pass/fail test is required to determine if this (or any other) modified sine wave inverter is efficiently powering your particular electronics at the risk of burning out those expensive electronics. PowerDrive knows all this. But why is this critical point not clearly mentioned/underlined in the proposal? Otherwise nice to look at. The product has never been connected and returned without resistance. The controls and displays are well designed. Neat user manual. The seller is based in the USA. And I would like to add that the detachable display is amazing. And the bluetooth control is really VERY nice.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • All ok
