A car inverter is definitely a heaven-sent if you frequently find yourself needing a reliable mobile power source during your travels. Because of its compact size, you can take it anywhere with you. As a matter of fact, inverters these days are not just for land vehicles. They can also be used in boats and other vehicles that run on water. So whether you are travelling by land or by sea, you can be sure to have a steady supply of electricity for household appliances that you need to use on the go.
But just like any other electronic device, it is important that you observe proper usage to avoid problems with the inverter. Here are the dos and don'ts of using an inverter for your car, caravan, boat, and other types of vehicles.
Do ensure that the inverter is wired to your car's battery properly. While there are vehicle owners who prefer to just connect the device to their car's accessory outlet, most experts actually recommend wiring the inverter directly to the car battery to ensure unlimited and more reliable power connection. If you're planning to do the same, make sure you follow the instructions written on the user's manual and use proper installation methods. This is to minimise the risk of short circuits and ensure that the inverter is wired properly.
Don't store the inverter where it can get wet. If you're going to use a boat inverter, don't place it in an area where it can easily get wet. Otherwise, it might cause permanent damage to both the device and your appliances. It can also put you at a risk of being electrocuted. To avoid such scenarios, it is advisable that you place the inverter in a part of your boat that is elevated or protected from water.
Do not use the inverter beyond its capacity. Do not connect appliances with power requirements that are way beyond what the unit is designed to accommodate. If you're planning to use the inverter for extensive applications, it's best to get one with a bigger power capacity, like a 2000w or 3000w inverter, right off the bat.
Don't connect the vehicle inverter to a car battery that is in bad shape. Always remember that power inverters work best with a battery that is fully charged and in good condition. A weak battery will be drained easily, especially if demands are too high. This could leave you stranded in the middle of nowhere so be sure to check the battery's condition before using the device.
