It is important to use only the products that draw less power than the rating of the power inverter. Using products that exceed the power rating may either cause the protection circuitry of the power inverter to shut down or the fuse to blow.
Important: The smaller power inverters may not operate some appliances designed to produce heat such as hair dryers, heaters, toasters and coffee makers. User should always check the power rating before using these kinds of products to be sure they do not exceed the power capability of the inverter.
HOW TO CALCULATE USAGE: Most products have a wattage rating on them. Others may be marked with the current draw, such as .9 amps. To convert the current to watts, multiply the current by 115. (Example .9 amps x 115=104 watts)
