When talking about mobile power solutions, a pure Sine wave power inverter is perhaps the most reliable of them all. While many people use traditional power generators because some believe they are cheaper, an inverter is still a far better option to consider because of its numerous benefits. Here's a side-by-side comparison between a power inverter and a conventional power generator so you can decide which of them is better.
As you may know, unlike a pure Sine wave inverter, a power generator produces AC power through an engine that consumes fossil fuel such as diesel, propane, and petrol. While it is easy to obtain petrol for the generator, there are certain drawbacks to using this equipment for your mobile power needs. A generator can be terribly inefficient and waste a lot of fuel if it isn't used at full load for a long period of time. And because it uses petrol, it can cause pollution. It can be quite noisy, too.
A pure Sine Wave power inverter, on the other hand, also produces AC power. However, it utilises DC electrical energy stored in a battery bank, like a car's battery for example, instead of petrol. And instead of a mechanical engine, it uses high-speed electrical switches and transformers to modify DC to AC power. As such, the power conversion process is much safer to the environment because it is free from noise and pollution.
When it comes to peak output power, a power inverter is definitely better than the standard power generator. For those who didn't know, peak output power is basically the ability of a power source to provide more than its rated power to start a load. Because of its inherent operating characteristics, a power generator has poor peak power capability, which is usually no more than 110% to 125% of its continuous power rating. And if you need to start motor loads, you will need to get a bigger power generator.
Despite its compact size, an inverter can outperform a bigger power generator. It has very high peak power capability. Believe it or not, a pure Sine wave power inverter has peak output power that is often three to four times the number of its continuous power rating.
And finally, one of the biggest advantages of a pure Sine wave power inverter over a traditional power generator is that it doesn't require costly maintenance. Other than inspecting your car batteries once a year, there's really nothing else you need to do. Generators, meanwhile, require periodic maintenance to ensure proper operation. The oil needs to be changed after every 200 hours of use. You also need to drain the fuel from the engine if you're not going to use the generator for more than 30 days. As such, with its inefficiency and troublesome maintenance requirements, will you still choose a power generator over an inverter?
