    95-127VAC, and AC freq is in the range of 48-54Hz(58-64Hz for 60Hz model). The LP series pure sine wave inverter/charger has a very rapid charge current available, and the max charge current can be adjusted from 0%-100% via a liner switch on the DC side of the inverter. This will be helpful if this powerful charger apply charging on a small capacity battery bank.

    Ultimate Power www.upinverters.com 2.4.3 Transfer While in the Standby Mode, the AC input is continually monitored. Whenever AC power falls below the VAC Trip voltage (80VAC, default setting), the inverter automatically transfers back to the Invert Mode with minimum interruption to your appliances - as long as the inverter is turned on. The transfer from Standby mode to Inverter mode occurs in approximately 10 milliseconds.

    Ultimate Power www.upinverters.com AC/Battery Priority: Our inverter is designed AC priority by default. This means, when AC input is present, the battery will be charged first, and the inverter will transfer the input AC to power the load. Only when the AC input is stable for a continuous period of 15 days will the inverter start a battery inverting cycle to protect the battery.
