The device being described is a power inverter, which is used to convert the output from a battery (DC, or direct current) into 230V AC mains electricity (alternating current). This type of electricity is what utility companies provide to power standard household appliances like TVs, fridges, radios, lights, and to charge laptops or mobile phones. By connecting a power inverter to a battery, you can power these household appliances in areas without access to mains electricity, such as in a motorhome, caravan, boat, farm, or any other remote location.

Inverters are also useful for off-grid and backup systems in case of accidental power cuts. Specifically, the 300W 12V pure sine wave power inverter being described can produce 300W of continuous power and up to 600W of power at peak times. The peak time reserve capacity is useful for providing extra energy required to start an appliance compared to its continuous running. This inverter generates a pure sine wave type of output, meaning the 230V AC output follows a smooth sine wave harmonically and is almost identical to normal mains electricity.

The pure sine wave output is far superior to square wave or modified sine wave outputs for running appliances. This is because it is suitable for a broader range of appliances, such as those with electric motors, and it is more efficient compared to modified sine wave inverters. The product also has important protection and safety features, including over-discharge, overload, overheating, and short-circuit automatic shutdown.

Additionally, the inverter features a powerful USB port for faster charging of mobile phones, MP3 players, and other USB-compatible devices. It comes with 0.5m battery cables with a 6mm2 cross section.

Please make a note of the following specifications for the inverter:

- Continuous power: 300W

- Surge power: 600W (lasts for 1/2 second)

- Input: 12V (range: 10-15V) DC

- Output: 230V AC

- Output frequency: 50 Hz

- Output waveform: pure sine wave

- Total Harmonic Distortion (THD): less than 3%

- Peak efficiency: 90%

- Low battery shut down: 9.7V to 10.0V DC

- Low battery alarm: 10.0V to 10.5V DC

- High voltage shut down: 15.0V +/- 0.5V DC

The inverter weighs 1.4 kg and has the following dimensions: 21.5 x 15 x 6 cm.

This product is covered by a 1-year warranty and comes with a user manual that explains wiring and operations. To use it, simply connect it to your 12V battery or battery bank using the provided cables, plug your appliances into the inverter socket, and turn the power switch on. If you need help with installation or have any technical questions, free support is available via email or phone.

Additionally, the inverter can be connected to a 12V battery or battery bank alongside any 12V solar charging kits. If you already have one of our 12V solar charging kits with a charge controller connected to your 12V battery, you can add this inverter to your existing system. However, if the solar charge controller has a pair of "load" terminals, do not connect the inverter to this pair of terminals, as the power may be too high for the solar controller. It is recommended to connect it to your 12V battery directly.
