Review on 💡 Samlex America SAM-1500-12 1500W Modified Sine Wave Power Inverter by Tim Airy

I chose this inverter because I wanted a 1500w inverter and this SAM met my criteria. Not only the high-quality equipment, but also the remote control made this choice an unconditional choice for me. 50A fuse with #2 battery cable wiring. Welding cables would be the best choice due to their flexibility. Since I wanted to control the inverter from the master bedroom, I had to extend the remote control cable that came with it. I was able to run the remote control cable and power cord in the bedroom wall next to the rack where the TV and satellite tuner were connected. To comply with regulations, I ran 19 feet of #12 insulated outdoor electrical wire between the inverter and the wall. Traffic jams. It turned out to be a nice setup: the ability to turn the inverter on and off without getting up and going outside, in addition to isolating the inverter fan noise, was worth it. This summer we camped in a park that had no electricity and the generators had to be turned off after 10pm. Our satellite connection required the tuner to operate in conjunction with the TV. This consumed more than 10% of the inverter power and caused the fan on the inverter to turn on. Because of this load, we were only able to watch satellite TV for 1.75 hours before the battery voltage dropped below 11.6 volts and shut down the inverter. With a satellite tuner and an inverter fan, we watched TV for 4 hours or more without turning off. The Samlex 1500 Inveter provided our 32 inch digital TV with pure noise free performance and was preformed as advertised. When I called the company before the installation, I was put through to a technician who answered my questions and took the time to make sure I understood what he was telling me. Samlex America is a good company, delivers a good product and allows you to connect with people who understand you. :) BKH
