A power inverter, also known as an inverter or converter, is a device that converts DC voltage from a car battery or a cigarette lighter socket into ~230 V AC. This is the same voltage found in every household outlet (type F) across Europe. This inverter is a great choice for those heading out in a car, camper, or truck – it gives you the freedom to use all the necessary appliances that require a mains outlet to operate.
The device was designed for maximum convenience. The front of the inverter features a mains socket compatible with plugs used across Europe and a USB port for charging your smartphone, e‑reader, or other USB-powered device. On the back, a fan provides adequate cooling. The whole unit is enclosed in a compact yet very robust housing made of high-quality aluminum, making it resistant to mechanical damage or impacts while traveling. Thanks to the materials used, the inverter is also very light.
The first parameter to determine is your battery voltage, which should fully match the voltage specified on the inverter. The most common values are 12 V, found in passenger cars, motorhomes, and some trucks, and 24 V, used mainly in trucks.
After choosing the voltage, it is important to decide on the inverter power. This is key because it tells you how many and what types of devices the inverter can power. If you want to connect a specific device, check its power consumption on the rating label (for multiple devices, add their wattages). The power drawn by your devices should not exceed 85% of the inverter’s continuous (rated) power! For example, for a laptop drawing 100 W and a heater drawing 300 W, an inverter with at least 500 W would be suitable.
The intelligent fan maintains the correct device temperature by turning on automatically when the operating temperature exceeds the allowed limit. Thanks to high-quality materials and a perfectly fitted enclosure, it ensures quiet operation and high efficiency.
The inverter is equipped with a range of essential protections that safeguard the user and connected devices. This is confirmed by CE and RoHS certifications, which guarantee safety. Green Cell inverters feature a replaceable fuse that provides necessary protection for the inverter and connected equipment. Replacing it is very simple and should not cause any difficulties. We include spare fuses with every inverter to ensure complete safety and the longest possible service life of your device.
Choosing a pure (full) sine wave inverter is the safest solution because it delivers the same current waveform as household sockets in Europe. An inverter with this output lets you power all appliances, even the most sensitive ones. With a pure sine wave, you don’t have to worry about the operation of connected devices!
