1 Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the XPower Inverter 1000! The XPower Inverter 1000 has been designed to give you quality power, ease of use, and reliability.

Please take a few moments to read this chapter to familiarize yourself with the main performance features and protection features of the XPower 1000.

Quality Power

The XPower 1000 is a quality inverter designed for recreational vehicle (RV) and truck applications.

The XPower 1000 provides up to 1000 watts of continuous power. It is designed to handle loads such as 600 watt microwaves, TVs, VCRs, and midsized power tools.

The XPower 1000’s high surge capability lets you handle many hard- to-start loads, including large TVs and small refrigerators.

The XPower 1000’s low standby battery demand means you don’t have to worry about excessive drain on your battery if you leave the inverter on for a few days. When the XPower 1000 is on but no power is being supplied to a load, the inverter draws less than 300 mA from the battery.

The cooling fan in the inverter is thermally activated and comes on when the XPower 1000 becomes warm. The fan turns off automatically after the inverter has cooled.
