  • Its the real deal
Size: 1000W
Pros: This inverter is exactly what the documentation says it is. No "stretching the truth" in this case. The design is really nice, rugged and well built. The DC connectors were designed far enough apart and insulated well so that you would have to go to some trouble to short them out. The documentation provided is well written in English and covers pretty much everything you need to know (including the recommended fuse size and type, wire gauges lengths etc.). I've been testing this inverter off and on and last night I ran a full size upright freezer all night from my camping truck (solar) and an 12 ga extension cord. Part way through the test the fan came on, but it never got more than slightly warm. Cons: From what I can tell, the inverter pulls about .5 amps at idle. This isn't all that bad, but for an application like a freezer its kind of wasteful, since freezers cycle and spend quite a bit of time with the compressor off. That's 12 amp hours or 144 watt hours of overhead you might need to take into account. Other: I'm thinking about hacking the remote (sold separately) to turn the unit off and on with a solenoid triggered by the thermostat on a freezer. If anyone has ever done that or has a better idea, please leave a comment! 10/12-24 update: I've been using this for my camping setup for years now. Lately though, I've been running both a refrigerator and a freezer in my garage from solar with this 1000-watt inverter for a few months now and had no trouble. I put it in a stacked toolbox arrangement with a couple 100AH 12V LIFEPO4 batteries and had to add a small fan (enclosed case). Still working great since I bought it new in Jan 2020. I never did hack the remote, but I did buy one so I could shut it on and off from the toolbox it's now in. 11/14/2025 Update: It is still running my full sized refrigerator and freezer in the garage 24x7 using 3 100ah lifepo4 batteries (I added another one) and 1kw of solar panels. Over the years I have found that it may trip the built in GFCI circuit if I connect an electrically noisy device like a brushed motor on a large Harbor Freight shop fan. Other than that, it's still going and working great. I wish more things were built to last like this inverter. Regards, Upton O'Good ... show more

  • Well worth the price!
Size: 2000W
I can't give Wagan engineers credit enough; this inverter is absolutely amazing. Why are there not more glowing reviews; I have no idea! The 2000 Watt rating is an understatement. I've used this to power my entire house for days at 6 hours per day (via safe 'back-feeding' to main circuit-breaker panel from my electric car) with loads occasionally hitting 2200 Watts without quitting! This 'whole-house' back-feed included 2 small window AC units, full size refrigerator, internet/WIFI, TV, Computers, lights, etc. Even used the 1000 Watt microwave with the 2 AC units off temporarily. I used the "AC Current Voltage Amperage Power Energy Panel Meter LCD Digital Display Ammeter Voltmeter Multimeter with Split Core" to monitor the inverter's full output over a single 12 gauge cable connected to it's main terminal block. Just buy it and have peace of mind. Worth the price! This really is pure-sine-wave also, and the included cables are nice and long for the 12V tap; and are not 'starter' cables, these carry the full load! NO I'm not paid, I'm just shocked at how good this is and hardly any reviews at all? I don't like writing reviews at all, but I really believe in this product! ... show more

  • Powerful, Good Quality
Size: 2000W
This inverter has proven itself to meet the manufacturer's specs. I connected it to a 170AH, 12V lithium battery and was able to run it slightly over it's 2kW rating by using a microwave oven, refrigerator, and heat gun all at once for 10 minutes. I also connected it to my travel trailer and it easily started the air conditioner. I was pretty amazed because my air conditioner requires a little over 3kW to start it but then drops to about 1.9kW continuous. Of course, the inverter is claimed to be able to handle 4kW surges but I was skeptical that it would even handle a 3kW surge after seeing all the complaints about other manufacturer's inverters. I ran the air conditioner for a half hour in 89 degree weather and the inverter fans came on but it just purred along without any complaints. It appears to be very solid and well built. I definitely recommend this WAGAN inverter - even at the $438 price I paid. It's worth the peace of mind. ... show more

  • It just works, I didnt read the manual so maybe i missed something.
Size: 1000W
I didn't like the terminals that came with it, i needed to take a file from a multi tool to carve out the hole to the next size up while i was OTR driving the semitruck. it powers my PC just fine but it does have a high-pitched noise. I'm assuming its from a coil. buy it if you want or find a different one; its your money. I was disappointed in the fact it wasn't made in America -1 star for that alone. ... show more

  • Great inverter
Size: 1000W
The inverter install in my tacoma wasn't easy, only due to routing wires through the truck. The inverter worked flawlessly so far. We used it on a 4600mi road trip for the first use. Had my fridge connected the whole time. The low voltage alarm let me know I had disconnected my dual batteries. Great feature! I also got the remote switch which is extremely convenient. ... show more

  • Tough enough
Size: 1000W
Solid little inverter. Handled about 800 watts for several hours and barely got warm. This one is a keeper. Too many inverters on Amazon can’t do what they claim. This one briefly went over a 1000 watts several times without a hiccup. I don’t know about longevity since I’ve only had it a few days, I’ll update if it burns out early, but I think it will last. ... show more

  • Defective Product - Sent Twice
Size: 1000W
The first one that was defective was returned and the second replacement also did not work. I think they just resent me the first one. Real nasty trick I am very unhappy with this product so do not deal with this company.

  • Reliable so far
Size: 2000W
So far so good. Running 60w computer 24/7. I have not tried a full power smoke test because I dont want to smoke it.
