BTW, it is not the least expensive unit. I do not trust claims of a true
sinewave inverter for $50! ! Copper and iron required for the output
transformer at 300-watts can not be sourced responsibly for that price,
even in China. If I remember, my inverter was 'around' $250. But, it is
CLEAN.
I checked those at Harbor Freight in the $50 range that claimed to be clean
and pure sinewave before buying the referenced unit. They were as dirty as
you might imagine and not massive enough to have a real copper and iron
transformer on the output at 120 vac.
