hi guys
i have browsed this topic somewhat most people seem happy with powerjack inverters, might be a good idea to ask here b4 my purchase
i currently have a kipoint inverter the low frequency model 1200W, works well, still good after 7 years of always being on. but now need a 12v system.
is it a problem if i buy the inverter on ebay auction, not the buy it now? i am looking at the bidding for the 3000 LF LCD model.
any recommended seller? full listing vs auction??
i will run a desktop pc and home theatre.. watts meter shows max 1000 watts used when gaming.. sounds right to me.
so the smallest 3000w power jack is the one im looking at.
my concerns are idle power consumption, but i see you have modified them adding a choke.
.................
so please guide me on ebay auctions, ok to buy? are these inferior to full listings?
price approx to modify adding choke for better idle use power, do latest LCD 2015 models perform better than older ones?
and general build quality? will it last? any additional comments welcomed
if there is better option.. better quality for a few dollars more. i would consider it.
im just scared to buy this, if the circuits die, is it costly to repair? dont want to harm my computer, tv, etc using a crap inverter. bud very budget minded on next inverter choice. tho 350 to 400 $AU seems cheaply.. if better models exsist for say $100-200 more and if au branded, built
EDIT...
ive also been looking at this one, unit weight of 24kg so must have a transformer in it.. low frequency plus derrimet is just next suburb over. might get a offline deal!
