It is a:

GO POWER      <www.gpelectric.com>
Carmanah
1-866 247-6527
Power Inverter    300 watt DC to AC
Model:  GP-SW300

Since it is made in China, your mileage may vary.  However, mine is pretty
clean.  If I frisk it within a couple of inches with a B-Dot probe (loop),
I can find a few switching emissions, but pretty low.  Both the DC input
and the AC output are pretty clean - they know how to do decoupling.  The
output is transformer coupled at 60 Hz.  I may have gotten this from
Amazon, but I do not remember - confidence on that statement is about 40%
😊   It is a true sinewave inverter.

I took pictures of the label, but this group strips images from emails.
