The rating mentioned for the inverter refers to current /voltage capability. (It approximates to a power rating of up to 800 Watts although power and VA are slightly different measurements). The television uses 215 Watts which is also a power rating. Therefore, the television will run continually on the inverter without overloading it.

The time limit for operation is the battery that is supplying the inverter with energy. As the battery is not specified the operational time can't be calculated. However, if we take an example of a 12 Volt battery with a capacity of 70 Amp hours (a size that may well be found in a car), the amount of energy stored in the battery should operate the television for a theoretical time of just less than four hours. In reality, the battery will not be capable of delivering all of the energy it stores so some time is likely to be lost. The television power rating is often quoted as the maximum power draw and it will probably draw less power than 215W. This means that the time may be rather longer than 4 hours.

There are a lot of factors such as battery efficiency, power draw, temperature, inverter efficiency and brightness setting of the television that all have an effect on the operation time so the only real method is to hook it up and try it.

If the power source is a lead acid battery then make sure the battery is not left discharged for long periods. Leaving it discharged will adversely affect the life span of the battery so get it back on a charger as soon as possible.

How many 12 volt batteries does it take to power a 3000 watt invertet for 24 hours?

You need 3000 x 24 watt-hours or 72,000 watt-hours. A typical car battery has a capacity of 50 Ah or 600 watt-hours, so you would need 120 car batteries, connected in the right combination of series and parallel to give the right voltage for the inverter.


Can a laptop with a 65 watt power adapter be powered up with a 300 watt dc to ac inverter with 140 watt continuous operation with low voltage and overload protection?

Yes, theoretically you can power up a laptop with a 65 watt power adapter using a 300 watt DC to AC inverter, as the laptop will only draw the power it needs (65 watts). However, it's important to ensure that the inverter has low voltage and overload protection to prevent any damage to the laptop or the inverter itself during operation.

Can a 10000 watt inverter run a dryer?

It is unlikely that a 10,000 watt inverter can power a dryer, as dryers typically require a much higher wattage, around 5,000 to 6,000 watts. It is important to refer to the manufacturer's specifications for both the inverter and the dryer to ensure compatibility.


Will a 2000 watt inverter power a sump pump?

It depends on the power requirements of the sump pump. For a typical residential sump pump, a 2000 watt inverter should be enough. However, it's important to check the power consumption of your specific sump pump to ensure the inverter can handle it.
