Turn on the highest wattage appliance first then other appliances. If an appliance combination in the 1500 / 2000 watt range will not operate properly, then it is likely that this Energizer® inverter does not have the required capacity to operate the appliance in question.
The unit will shut down if the internal temperature gets too hot. Restart the inverter after it cools. This Energizer® inverter will only operate from a 12V power source. Do not attempt to connect the inverter to any other power source, including any AC power source.

J. Ground Terminal. Determining the DC Power Requirements Powering multiple appliances from the high-power ENK1100 / ENK1500 / ENK2000 inverter requires a 12 volt bank of batteries (several batteries). To calculate the approximate power in amps a 12 volt battery bank has to supply you need.
Sizing the Battery Bank To determine the minimum battery bank ampere-hour rating that you will need to operate appliances from the inverter, and any DC appliances powered by the battery bank, follow these steps: 1. List the maximum wattage that the inverter has to provide (as above).
Batteries used to start engines are not designed to repeatedly charge and discharge. Energizer® recommends using “deep-cycle” or “marine” rated batteries. Cable Gauges When connecting the inverter to a battery bank use the thickest stranded insulated copper wire available, in the shortest length practical.
Operating the inverter without correctly grounding the unit may result in electrical shock. Mounting the Inverter Your Energizer® Inverter should not be mounted under the hood of a vehicle. If installing in a vehicle, choose a dry, cool, ventilated area closest to the battery as practical.
Connecting the Inverter This inverter has two DC cable connections, one positive and one negative. The order of steps in the following procedure minimizes the danger of sparking near the battery bank. 1. Prepare all cable set ends with ring terminals at the battery ends. 2.
Television and Audio Suggestions Although all Energizer® inverters are shielded and filtered to minimize signal interference, some interference with your television picture may be unavoidable, especially in weak signal areas. However, here are some suggestions that may improve reception: 1. First, make sure that the television antenna produces a clear signal under normal operating conditions.

STAGE 2: The inverter then converts the high voltage DC into 110v AC (household current), using advanced MOSFET transistor in a full bridge configuration. This design provides this Energizer® inverter with the capability to start and run difficult reactive loads, while providing excellent overload capability.
Troubleshooting PROBLEM: No Input Voltage Reason Solution Shut down inverter and disconnect. Poor contact with battery Clean terminals thoroughly and terminals. reconnect. Turn off inverter. Fix problem. Blown DC battery fuse(s). Replace fuse(s) with same type and rating. PROBLEM: Inverter is Shut Down Reason Solution Battery voltage below 10 Volts.
