Features

Mobile Sine Wave Inverter Charges and Powers Multiple Electronic Devices in Your Vehicle
You don’t have to be near an AC power source to keep your mobile devices fully charged and your power tools operating. This 300W mobile inverter converts 12V DC power from your car, utility truck, fleet vehicle, boat or RV’s battery into pure sine wave 110V AC power. Just connect the included battery cables between the PINV300SW-120’s DC input terminals and the positive and negative terminals on your vehicle’s battery.

AC Outlets Provide Portable Power for Your Mobile Applications
This compact power inverter provides pure sine wave AC output for use at remote locations, such as campgrounds, construction sites and mobile offices. Two NEMA 5-15R outlets provide a continuous output of 300W and a peak output of 600W. That’s plenty to operate a variety of appliances and power tools, such as low-power lights, telemetry equipment, smart battery rechargers for small battery-operated power tools, and mobile office equipment.

USB Charging Ports Keep Your Devices at Full Strength
A 5V USB-A port outputs DC power up to 2.1A. A USB-C port outputs 5V/9V/12V fast-charging up to 18W maximum. Both USB ports remain active when the inverter’s on/off switch is set to Off. This allows you to charge your smartphone, tablet, laptop or GPS unit without draining too much power from the vehicle’s battery.

Includes the Latest Safety Features to Protect Your Equipment and Battery
The on/off switch offers one-touch control over both AC outlets. If the power input from the vehicle’s battery drops below 10V or exceeds 16V, the PINV300SW-120 will automatically shut down. Green and red LEDs indicate normal and improper operation. A temperature-controlled fan system begins cooling automatically when the internal temperature rises to a certain level during extended use. An audible alarm sounds during excessively high/low voltage or fault conditions.

Brackets Included for Permanent Mounting
The durable aluminum housing withstands the rigors of worksites, construction sites, business trips and family vacations. Use the built-in mounting brackets and included hardware to permanently install the inverter in a horizontal position.
