Key Features

  • Converts DC power into 3000 watts of continuous 120V AC power
  • 15- and 20-amp outlets provide 120V AC power
  • Includes "Battery Saver" low voltage alarm/shutdown
  • Heavy-duty DC input terminals assure solid connection to battery. Dual connections provide high wattage to support heavy equipment loads.
  • Operating mode switch controls inverter operation.
  • Remote control jack provides optional remote monitoring and control (when used with FREE, included LED/switch module)
  • Remote Control LED/Switch Module controls and monitors your inverter from virtually anywhere within your vehicle with use of included extra-long cable. Allows multiple mounting options, including behind or below a dashboard or compartment. Features daisy-chain capability
  • Battery charge level LEDs indicate the approximate charge level (high/medium/low) of connected batteries
  • Connected load level LEDs indicate the approximate wattage load level (high/medium/low) of connected equipment
  • Sturdy extruded aluminum case stands up to the toughest work environments
  • Battery conservation charge dial conserves battery power by setting the low-load level at which the inverter automatically shuts off
  • Cooling fans provide cooler operation, lengthening inverter service life
