1600W Inverter

I wanted to add the capability to microwave my cup of coffee or other similar items to my RV without firing up my generator. My microwave draws 1250 watts input with a 900 watt output. My battery box is small so I needed an inverter that had a slim depth profile. This 1600 Watt inverter met my electrical and physical requirements. This inverter runs my 1250 Watt microwave with no problems whatsoever! I highly recommend! Update: My Microwave is a High Point EM925RYS. It came standard in my 2013 Fun Finder 189 FDS travel trailer. I did make a mistake in my previous posting, I said the microwave was rated at "1250 Watts input" and 900 Watts output. It is actually 1350 Watts input and 900 Watts output. My trailer batteries are two 6-volt 240 Amp HR golf cart batteries that are well maintained and in good condition. I suspect that some of you folks that are having problems may be due to a weak and/or undersized 12 volt RV/Marine type batteries that may not be in tip-top 100% good health? Battery capacity does indeed decline with age. Also, poor maintenance can cause a battery to under perform. When drawing large currents from a battery, size and good battery health does indeed matter! Improper installation may be another factor? Update 4 years later: I had this inverter in my old trailer and it worked great for years. Used it mostly for my wife’s hair dryer, small coffee pot (700W), and vacuum cleaner. Bought the same inverter for my new trailer. I didn’t install it for about 6 weeks after purchase. Had an issue and put in for a return with Amazon. They sent me a new inverter the next day! That’s only 24 Hours after I put in for my return! What company does that? What great customer service!!! Highly recommend!!! JDP

Backed by a sufficient battery bank connected with the properly sized cables, this inverter runs a 900-watt microwave oven. Popcorn anyone? It would not run our 1100-watt microwave oven. It easily powers an apartment refrigerator, television, fans, and even a 5k BTU air conditioner but will not run a Nuwave induction cooktop. You will definitely need a pure sine wave inverter for some things. The inverter was connected to two new 200ah Renogy Gel deep cycle batteries (wired in parallel) via 4/0 cables. The item is very sturdy and appears to be well made. It was packed impeccably and arrived quickly. The LED readout information is accurate. The wired remote control is a plus. We are very happy with our purchase and have already recommended this to our friends. We are now fans of GIandel and look forward to seeing what one of their larger, pure sine wave inverters will do. I purchased inverter with my own money. This review is based on my personal opinion and experience.

I installed this inverter in my rv it has performed perfectly, I’ve only used it in colder temps but have yet to ever hear the fans turn on .it makes virtually no sound when running the tv ! Great product

This is my first Giandel, 1600 watt modified, It ran microwave 1100 watt no problem, If modified runs this smooth then I can't wait to get a pure sine wave. Yes I recommend it. I think this is a steal at this price.

Installed in my boat. Works great. I tested my coffee pot first and ran fine at 625 watts. Fan didn't come on. Next microwave. It's a 700w that peaks at 1100w. Ran just fine. With this device the fans came on. Inverter didn't get hot. So real happy. This was a big upgrade for me from a 500w inverter. I have a 300 amp hour house battery bank. This will be sufficient at anchor.

I got this to use with a DIY solar generator. It is solidly built and provides power as it should. It even runs higher-amp power tools though that isn't what I got it for. Since I mounted it in a secure container with batteries and other gear, the remote on/off switch is very handy. I would by this brand and model again.

Don’t use it with electric blanket type electronics controllers. Runs a refrigerator-freezer 24/7 with five 100 amp solar powered lithium batteries in parallel for when SHTF.

The unit seems to be built nicely , works as needed. Did come with a remote on / off switch that does not work , otherwise I would give 5 stars
