Quiet Mobile Power
Congratulations! You've purchased the most advanced, feature-rich Inverter/Charger designed for recreational vehicle applications. Tripp Lite
RV Inverter/Chargers are the quiet alternative to gas generators-with no fumes, fuel or noise to deal with! You get AC electricity anywhere
and anytime you need it: rolling down the highway, dry camping in majestic back country or parked overnight at a money-saving non-electric
site. RV Inverter/Chargers provide your equipment with utility- or generator-supplied AC electricity (filtered through premium ISOBAR
tection) whenever available. In addition, your RV Inverter/Charger automatically powers your RV's 12V system and recharges your connected battery
bank-doing what traditional RV converter/chargers do. Whenever power blackouts, brownouts or high voltages occur, your RV Inverter/Charger imme-
diately and automatically switches over to inverting battery output to power connected AC equipment.
