Designed as a power solution for cars, trucks, boats, RVs, and campers, the Wagan Tech SlimLine 250W 11-15 VDC to 115 VAC Power Inverter is ideal for charging or running devices and appliances from smartphones to laptops to power tools. Screw-down power terminals allow it to be hard-wired to a 12 VDC battery quickly and easily, while the slim form-factor and flanges with screw holes enable it to be conveniently mounted. This inverter features a USB port.
Two standard 3-prong 115 VAC US outlets provide 250W of continuous power, with the capability of outputting up to 500W to safely power appliances that require large initial start-up wattage, or if you need to run a power tool for a short burst. A cooling fan and multiple safety circuitry ensures that both the inverter and the battery powering it are protected from damage including: low-battery, reverse-polarity, overheat, and overload protection.
