It gives you 300W of output at 230Vac, 50Hz, which makes it handy for camping, commercial vans and lorries, or as a way to draw back-up power from charged batteries during a blackout. It works well with everyday appliances such as TVs, lighting, fans and kettles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEfficiency runs at over 85%, so more of your battery charge reaches the appliance rather than being lost as heat. A soft start feature helps reduce the chance of the inverter shutting down when you switch on larger inductive loads. There is a built-in 2.1A USB socket for charging phones and other small devices, plus an LED and audible fault indicator so you know straight away if something needs attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProtection is built in across the board, covering low and over voltage input, short circuit, overload and overheat conditions. The inverter comes with one pair of 800mm DC power cables and a spare blade fuse. For inductive loads, voltage-sensitive devices or audio equipment, a pure sine wave inverter is a better fit. As a rule, pick an inverter rated for at least three times the device's power draw to allow for current surge, and check you have the correct 12V or 24V version for your supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230Vac, 50Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSB output current\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.1A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCurrent rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVoltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/652002UK_3351581d-608f-4bd4-be4b-77d661fe34ec.pdf?v=1785038755\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat can I run from the IMS300-12?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt suits everyday appliances like TVs, lighting, fans and kettles, as long as the device sits well within the 300W output rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShould I use a modified sine wave inverter for all equipment?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. For inductive loads, voltage-sensitive devices or audio equipment, we recommend a pure sine wave inverter, which is more suitable for those.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I size the inverter for my device?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose an inverter capable of supplying at least three times the device's rated power.
