I picked up the ALFFAA 1500W Power Inverter to get ready for some fishing and camping this spring so far I am really liking the build quality all aluminum build this model is designed to be connected directly to a 12v battery so make sure you get some decent cables.It has 2 USB ports with a total of 4.2amps each port has 2.1amps available and 2 110V should be more than sufficient for my needs this year.If everything goes to plans and I remember I will come back and update after this season.

It ran my 1500W-ish heater just fine.... At least for a couple minutes... It started my sho vac (6hp?)It did struggle to start my circular saw though.. It took a couple pulls of the trigger.. But it eventually started it up. Over all I'm pretty satisfied with it! Just make sure you have a battery that can supply the current needed at it's maximum rating. Standby current was under 2A (less than 24W) The display take a little while to catch up when a load is applied. From the display it looks like my heater was pulling ~1250W with a DC current of 126A!! That's 1450W from the battery. Now I didn't measure the accuracy of the meters on the unit. so these numbers might be a little off.

Seems well made and works well. Like most inverters and portable generators, it has a floating ground, so if you test the AC circuit, it shows as open ground. This is ok for most devices but not for newer furnaces. The nice CEO at CarGenerators told me how to make an extension cord that bonded ground and neutral and all works. Note, a "bonding plug" does not work on this inverter, plugging in to the adjacent outlet.

Test/Review Summary:From the time, I placed the order and received the item, was about 3-4 days. The item is packaged very well with nice thick box and thick foam protective material. In the box, I only received the inverter and a sheet of product information. You need to purchase your own cable/wire to connect from 12V battery terminals to the inverter terminals. Undersize cable will cause the inverter to not work properly (auto shutdown) and or fire hazard. This inverter is rated for 1,500W (110V about 12.6 Amp), meaning for the 12V battery system, the battery will need to supply minimum of 116 Amp continuous to the inverter. My recommendation is to get 2AWG or 1/0 cable and keep the distance short, such as max of 2 ft for positive and 2ft for negative. This is DC system, different from AC system. When you hook up directly to the inverter terminals from the battery, you will see spark. This can be dangerous. You need to use a pre-charge resistor to slowly bridge between inverter and battery (about 10-15 second). For details, just google it. If your battery has BMS (battery management system), you need to make sure its BMS limit is at least 120A; anything less, the battery won’t be able to support 1,500W @110V inverter load.During my test, I found out this inverter consumed between 2.20 Watt and 2.31 Watt of my 12V battery (at idle, inverter “ON” without pulling any load). For this type of inverter is acceptable; to save battery power, just turn it OFF when not in use. There is discrepancy of output Voltage reading between my Fluke meter and inverter display (ranging from 1.5V to 0.5V).First test, I used a portable heater rated for 1,500W @110V. My heater only pulled 11.6A @111V - equivalent to 1,288Watt (according to the inverter meter). My next test is adding more load to the existing load. Total load was about 14.1Amp at 110V - equivalent to 1,551Watt (according to the inverter meter). I had it run for about 10 minutes and worked fine. The product information states the inverter peak power is 1,700Watt.To obtain longer life of the inverter, it is recommended to run below rated (1,500Watt) for continuous usage. For appliance usage, you may need bigger inverter due to initial power surge, the initial surge can be 50%-60% more of the rated appliance.PS: I did test both USB ports, and they all worked fine. See pictures for details.It is recommended to add fuse between 12V battery and the inverter (at the positive side), the max fuse for 2AWG (or 1/0) wire is 150A, with max wire length 2 ft for each terminal (positive/negative). The fuse is to protect the wire/equipment.Hope this info helps.
