Congratulations! You've purchased the most advanced, feature-rich Inverter/Charger designed as an alternative energy source for residential,
commercial or recreational vehicle applications. Tripp Lite 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: utility power disruptions, rolling down the highway, dry camping
in majestic back country or parked overnight at a money-saving non-electric site. Inverter/Chargers provide your equipment with utility- or
generator-supplied AC electricity (filtered through premium ISOBAR® surge protection) whenever available. In addition, your Inverter/Charger
automatically recharges your connected battery bank. Whenever blackouts, brownouts or high voltages occur, your Inverter/Charger immedi-
ately and automatically switches to battery power.

  • Page 7: Battery Selection

    NOTE! For Tripp Lite Inverter/Chargers providing 1250 watts or less of continuous AC power, a full-size battery will normally allow sufficient power for many applications before recharging is necessary. For mobile applications, if a single battery is continuously fed by an alternator at high idle or faster, then recharging from utility or generator power may not be necessary. For Tripp Lite Inverter/ Chargers over 1250 watts used in mobile applications, Tripp Lite recommends you use at least two batteries, if possible fed by a heavy-duty alternator anytime the vehicle is running.
