Really good deal!

Just thought I would pass this deal along to everyone. I run a 1500 watt paower inverter in my work van and it powers my chargers and my microwave....

This is not the same brand as mine, but it is also $250 less than what I paid.

I have ordered from costco.ca before and was very pleased with the quick service.

I have been thinking about getting an inverter for my Jeep, you know to run the PS3 and Wii and plasma tv while camping  .  Honestly though how weather resistant are these units?  I have a 2 gallon compressor I want to use as onboard air.  I probably would not need same that big though to run that though.

I don't think they are very "weather reisitant", but I have run my Porter cable pancake compressor off my inverter with no problems.

Damn good deal

I paid about $350 for mine a couple years ago, they work awesome when camping,.. make note to run your car otherwise the battery will run dry,.. and if possible get a solar panel for trickle charge if you do kill your batt (takes a full day to charge a dead batt)


Awesome Deal!!

Don't they normally have low voltage shutdown features and low voltage alarms?

Mine does have an alarm, but I've left it powered on at night when I got home from work a few times and the batt was dead in the morning (usually winter only). If you can't hear the alarm from inside the house, it's not much good. Low voltage shutdown would be nice. It's a crappy feeling walking out to my van in the morning when I'm running behinde and hear a slight beeping coming from inside my van.

Just checked and it looks like the one from costco has:

Overload and over-temperature shutdown
Over?voltage protection (15 V DC)
Low voltage alarm (11 V DC)
Low voltage cut-out (10.5 V DC)
