Product Overview
Looking to reproduce wall power from a battery source without any power interference? Are you using a vehicle battery or separate battery bank to supply power in remote locations or work environments where wall power / shore power is not available? With reliable 120V AC power, Pure Sine Wave output and the ability to charge batteries, the Tripp Lite APS2012SW is your answer.
Provide Pure Sine Wave power in your fleet vehicle, work truck or utility vehicle with the Tripp Lite APS2012SW. This inverter/charger supplies 2000 watts of continuous 120V AC power. The reliable large transformer design and frequency control powers resistive loads such as refrigerators, motors, pumps, compressors and laser printers as well as electronic loads like TV’s, Computers, power tool and battery chargers. The 3-stage charging system will properly charge and maintenance your vehicle battery or separate battery bank. The charge rate is selectable so you can use a variety of battery sizes as well as multiple batteries to fit your run time requirements.
