Wagan 12V Power Accessories - Power Inverter - WC2600 Review- Video

Wagan 12V Power Accessories - Power Inverter - WC2600 Review

Today, we're going to review part number WC2600, this is the Wagan Elite 200 Watt PRO Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter with the USB Power Port. Now, an inverter is designed to convert DC power to AC power for a wide range of AC-powered appliances. This Wagan inverter is powered from a 12 volt DC and will continuously deliver 200 watts and even 400 watts momentary peak AC power at 120 volts, 60 Hertz. The surge capability of the 400 watts allows this inverter to start even more difficult motorized appliances. Now, this Wagan inverter operates at a high efficiency up to 90%, and that result in a long run time and extended battery life compared to other inverters with this level of power output. Now, most vehicle accessory sockets that are controlled through a vehicle's ignition switch are fused at 15 amps, and therefore this limits the inverter output to about 180 watts. This inverter here has an external fuse of 25 amps and that switch will allow us to do the higher 200 watts. Now, this is also a pure sine wave inverter, and it delivers a pure sine wave AC power which is identical to that of commercial power. You can use this inverter to power AC appliances in your vehicle or off-grid backup power systems. more

The USB power output here will charge your smartphones, your iPads, digital camera, game consoles, GPS, and other electronics. One note I do want to mention that because Samsung tablets require a different charging configuration, this unit is not compatible with charging the Samsung tablets. Now each USB port on this hub provides 2.4 amps of power, so four of them would give you your total of 9.6 amps. This is enough to charge even the most recent models of iPads. more
