The Duracell Inverter 1000 is a remarkably compact and reliable power solution for professional travelers, contractors, and others who need portable AC power on demand. It employs advanced electronics to convert virtually all available standard 12-volt DC battery power into 120-volt household AC electricity. From power tools, to entertainment, to computer hardware--the Duracell Inverter 1000 gives you the flexibility to take all of your power-hungry equipment on the road with you.  Duracell Inverter 1000 powers your tools with ease. |
Packed with Features
The Duracell Inverter 1000 is packed with features that will keep you up and running while you are out-and-about. It uses highly efficient internal electronics to convert up to 90% of available 12-volt DC power to standard 120-volt household current. Two grounded AC outlets provide a total of 1000 watts of continuous output power and a peak output power of 2000 watts. High peak-power gives you the surge capacity to activate products that require more starting power. It is easily strong enough to recharge your equipment's batteries and provide power for all of your mobile needs. Its heavy-duty stud connectors ensure a safe, secure power connection to your DC power source. Additionally, the Duracell Inverter 1000 has convenient mounting brackets for greater stability.
Perfect for Travelers and Contractors
Duracell's Inverter 1000 is ideal for those who are professional travelers or who work out of their vehicles. Small electronics are no problem. If your laptop battery runs low or you need more play time with your MP3 player, portable gaming console, or DVD player, simply connect your devices into the AC outlets and keep going. It can power your equipment directly, or simply recharge the batteries. The Duracell Inverter 1000 can also handle beefier equipment with ease. Household appliances such as compact microwave ovens, bar refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, portable stereos, televisions, gaming consoles, and even full-size computers with monitors are all easily powered by it. Contractors will appreciate that it can run drills, jigsaws, sanders, buffers, and work lights in remote locations. Whether you're in an RV, tractor-trailer, van, or truck, the Duracell Inverter 1000 truly is your portable power solution.
Duracell Inverter 1000 Protects Your Equipment
The Duracell Inverter 1000 has several features to keep both you and your devices safe. Over-temperature shutdown keeps the unit from overheating under extreme conditions and prevents fires. The overload shutdown ensures that the unit's inverter does not become damaged from being overpowered by the DC source. The low-voltage alarm activates at 11 volts of DC current, and the low-voltage shutdown turns the unit off at 10.5 volts. This keeps the internal circuitry of both the inverter and your electronic devices safe when there is insufficient DC energy to power them.
Product Description
Duracell Recreational Inverters convert DC battery power from a vehicle into AC power to operate electronics, appliances and tools, such as a small refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, TV, stereo, drill, jigsaw or computer on board your vehicle, boat or RV. Duracell Inverter 1000 includes two AC outlets, high surge capacity and protection features. It features mounting brackets, and is a great power source for contractors who want to operate power tools near a work vehicle.

 going for two months now! February 4, 2010
N. Barre (san diego)
seems to be a good inverter. Does everything i want it to without complaint on my boat, running off of solar-charged golfcart batteries. It is very nice that the thermostatically controlled fan doesn't turn on unless you are using a lot of juice. My old inverter had a fan that was always on, even when charging an ipod or cellphone - super-annoying! So, this one is great, so far!

This is my 2nd unit. After 2 weeks of continuous use the fan will fail. Unfortunately, my company will only allow this inverter.

Great product to run a small hand-held vac (110 V) for blowing up an air mattress in the wilderness with no utilities!
Probably works fine...if it was easy to install June 5, 2009

I've done a lot of home wiring but wouldn't tackle this one on my own. This requires some pretty sophisticated work to install it in a vehicle. I'm going to sell it on Ebay and just use a 750 watt inverter that can clamp to the battery posts and that's all you do to get it operational. Wasn't looking for a permanent installation. This doesn't come with any pigtails or such either. Sort of feel like I've been sold a bill of false goods as nowhere in the description does it say this is not for your everyday DIY'er.
Good product, but always buy a bigger inverter than you need! September 21, 2008

I originally bought this to power a 1000 W immersion heater, but the heater apparently pulls more like 1200 W. This inverter would trip almost immediately upon turning on the immersion heater. I exchanged this for a Cobra 1500 W inverter, and have never had a problem. So, don't get a 1000 W inverter if you have a 1000 W load.
