A 5000-watt inverter on a 24 volt system draws approximately 208 amps (5000 watts / 24 volts = 208.33 amps). This calculation assumes 100% efficiency, so actual power draw may be slightly higher.
If we assume that the inverter is used in your car on 12 Volts DC and you are creating 120 VAC; and the 2500 watts refers to the AC side of inverter then for a resistive load Amps = Watts / Volts = 2500/120.
One would assume the chainsaw requires 120 volts or more if you want to run it with an inverter. If your chainsaw uses 16 amps at 120 volts then your wattage is Volts (120) x Amps (16) and that would be 1920 watts. So you will require a much larger inverter to run your chainsaw.
Yes, theoretically you can power up a laptop with a 65 watt power adapter using a 300 watt DC to AC inverter, as the laptop will only draw the power it needs (65 watts). However, it's important to ensure that the inverter has low voltage and overload protection to prevent any damage to the laptop or the inverter itself during operation.
It depends on the power requirements of the sump pump. For a typical residential sump pump, a 2000 watt inverter should be enough. However, it's important to check the power consumption of your specific sump pump to ensure the inverter can handle it.
A 1,000 watt inverter giving 110 volts is rated at 9 amps.
A 5000-watt inverter on a 24 volt system draws approximately 208 amps (5000 watts / 24 volts = 208.33 amps). This calculation assumes 100% efficiency, so actual power draw may be slightly higher.
Amps x volts equals watts...200 amps at 12 volts would be 2400 watts...add a few more because. the inverter efficiency is not 100 percent...
we can use 12 no's
One 150 watt inverter reports 0.2 Amps (=approx 2.4watts) Another inverter (180 watts?) reported 0.4 Amps If you find a fairly complete spec sheet, it may tell you the Amps or Watts that it uses under "No Load". I'm the originator of the question, and I discovered the "additional" specs.
If we assume that the inverter is used in your car on 12 Volts DC and you are creating 120 VAC; and the 2500 watts refers to the AC side of inverter then for a resistive load Amps = Watts / Volts = 2500/120.
The formula for watts (or power) is Amps times voltage. Therefore with a 6 amp draw times 120 volts would be about 720 watts. A 1000 watt power inverter would do the job.
One would assume the chainsaw requires 120 volts or more if you want to run it with an inverter. If your chainsaw uses 16 amps at 120 volts then your wattage is Volts (120) x Amps (16) and that would be 1920 watts. So you will require a much larger inverter to run your chainsaw.
You will need a battery charger capable of providing up to75 amps at 12 volts DC. This is called a converter, not an inverter. An inverter takes 12 v and transforms it usually to 120v AC or 220v Ac. Keep in mind that your 1000 watt amp will not draw 100 amps only briefly at times if at all unless you are at maximum volume. You probably could get by with a 50 amp charger and a big capacitor to supply the boost for a few seconds.
Answer If, when you state "...240 watt 2.0amp..." you are indicating that 2 amps, or 240 watts at 120 volts, then that inverter will power a device which does NOT draw more than that amount of current. Check the plate or label on the compact fridge you want to power, and find the maximum current draw. For appliances, it will usually be stated in amps, rather than watts. If that amount is equal to or less than the output of your inverter, then it should work. Also, pay attention to the maximum current used by the appliance, versus the continuous output figure for the inverter, NOT the peak momentary output.

The runtime of a 3000-watt inverter on a 12-volt battery depends on the capacity of the battery, measured in amp-hours (Ah). To calculate, first convert watts to amps using the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For a 3000-watt inverter at 12 volts, it draws 250 amps. If you have a 100 Ah battery, for example, it would run for about 0.4 hours (24 minutes) under ideal conditions, not accounting for efficiency losses or the battery's discharge limits.
