power inverter question

You should have no problem with that wattage. TVs don't use much power these days and I'm not a great fan of the inverters they sell at Truckstops.
I bought a Pure Sine inverter and love it. Does its job and would recommend it. But you will pay more for a P/Sine over a Mod Sine. That you see in a TS.
Go online and shop around. There's a good website. Don Rowe who sells different kinds.
good luck.

 

You're good. A PS4 consumes about 150 watts and the TV consumes about 100 watts. Personally I don't buy any electronics from a truck stop.

 

that's more than enough.

I got a decent Stanley 400w plug in inverter from lowes cheap enough and it ran my 30" flat screen and laptop at the same time. now that I'm at a much better company don't need it as we have big inverters but when I was starting out in the bare bones training company truck the 400w did just fine for anything but a microwave. 750w should have no problem handling your load.

don't buy one from a truckstop as others have said. almost anything you get there of an electronic nature is going to be mass produced cheap ### complete junk.

an online search should turn up some decent aftermarket units much better quality and for the same money or less than you can get at the truckstop.

 

I bought a couple of Cobra 400 watt inverters at truck stops and have had excellent service from them. I bought another brand from a truck stop and it didn't last 6 months. The first Cobra lasted several years and the last Cobra I have had for at least a couple of years and it has performed very well. I would recommend Cobra whether you buy at a truck stop or elsewhere. There are other brands you can purchase. Most are more expensive.

 

Have the Power Drive 1500 watt inverter for two years now with no problems.

 

Cant comment on a good or bad inverter, but to know how big you need, just do the math...Amps x volts = watts... say your tv draws 2amps x110volts =220watts. Of course, bigger is always better.

 

If you look at YouTube videos on inverters. The inverters always claim they can do more than they can. Just go bigger than you need for safety.

 

Did you have to wire that in or does it run from a cigarette lighter?

 

Wire it in. Our company does it for free.
