Operation

NOTE The On/Off Switch turns the control circuit in the inverter On and Off. It does not disconnect power from the inverter.

When the switch is in the Off position, the inverter draws no current from the battery. When it’s in the On position, but no power is being supplied to the load, the inverter draws less than 500 milliamperes from the battery. This is low current draw. It would take more than a week to discharge a 100 ampere- hour battery at this rate depending on the age of the battery.

Remote On /Off Switch (not included)

An optional Remote On/Off Switch (not included) can be connected to the Remote Jack allowing you to turn the Cobra® CPI 2500 Inverter On or Off from a convenient location when the inverter is installed in an out of reach location.
