No. The 12volts will not make a difference. The inverter converts the 12volts to 110/115volts. A 400watt inverter is not sufficient to run a power saw or any heavy power equipment like that. Laptops consume 20-50watts, while a coffee pot would consume more like 200-400watts. Your power equipment is a much heavier load, between 1000-4000watts depending on if it is a power saw or something larger. A basic 7 1/4 circular saw will use anywhere from 1000-2500 watts on starting and will draw a constant 800-1500 watts. Keep in mind it will draw more as you put it under load of cutting something, this will not run on a 400 watt inverter, let alone an 800 or 1000watt. You could however possibly run a power drill on that inverter, but otherwise no luck.

What is a 400 watt power inverter?

A inverter is what makes you be able to go from dc to AC. Usually a 400 watt inverter goes in a vehicle while a 5000 is typical for homes. If you wanted to use a laptop on electric only in your car... you would plug the inverter into the cig. lighter outlet in the car and your laptop into the inverter. Hope that helps!

Can you use an inverter on a 1500 watt sodium bulb?

You can as long as the rating of the inverter supports the 1500 watt power requirement at the operational voltage of the bulb. There may be a surge at start-up of the bulb so that has to be taken into account.

Can a 350w inverter plug into a battery?

The whole purpose of an inverter is to convert DC to AC.Mainly, you should check the voltage of the inverter, and of the battery - they should match.As to the 350 watt: the battery must be able to provide that much power. Check the battery specifications. Actually, it is also possible that you take less power from the battery - it really depends what devices you connect to the inverter.
