Review on πŸ”Œ 2500W Pure Sine Wave Inverter 48V to 110V 120V, DC to AC Power Inverter 48 Volt, Surge 5000W with Hardwire Terminal and Earth Ground - Ideal for Home Use, RV. (2500W48V) by Alex Tilden

Revainrating 1 out of 5

This supposed 2kW inverter failed catastrophically after 2 minutes at 1.7kW load

I may have gotten a lemon so can't say that applies to every one of these units but certainly could not handle the sustained load advertised for this particular device and apparently the advertised security features did not work properly in this case. The device made a loud popping noise and turned itself off. I took the cover off to check the fuses and 4 out of 6 were blown. I replaced those 4 fuses and with no load on the inverter I reconnected the battery which caused a massive arc which damaged the battery connector and immediately blew the fuses again. Apparently there was a catastrophic failure that caused a short circuit inside the device, causing my battery to ignite so badly. And the high amperage, 48 volt arcs are no joke!

Pros
  • Surge 5000w Inverter
Cons
  • Outdated
