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.
