Your Smart AC Power Inverter converts 12 V DC battery power to 110 V AC household electrical power so you can operate products from your car, truck, boat, SUV or RV.
Operation
1.Plug the inverter into your vehicle's lighter socket. If the socket is too large, adjust the negative connectors using the slide control to ensure a snug fit. The (green) LED will light up.
2.Plug an AC product into the three prong AC receptacle and turn it on. Ensure your product draws 75 watts or less of continuous AC power. To avoid discharging the battery, always remove the inverter from the lighter socket when not in use.
