I’d say the inrush current may be too great for the cheapy inverter you borrowed from your mate, hence the beeping. Also battery voltage below 12v is not ideal either so more battery may be required for longer use. It’s a little bit like the ‘how long is a piece of string’ analogy. Ideally need to know the current draw under normal operation and peak operation to work out capacity and then how long you want to run it without charging from a particular source.
Happy to work through any questions you might have. |
Thanks for your help mate. What you say makes sense.
The power I need has to be at least 1500w. That unit you linked was 1000w. The coffee machine is 1200w. Would the unit you mentioned be good enough for what I need or should I go the next one up?
Is there an all in 1 battery and inverter unit on offer rather than a separate one?
