Extralink OPIM-1500W modified sine wave inverter
The Extralink OPIM-1500W inverter is a device that converts the output voltage of a battery (direct current, DC) into 230 V alternating current (AC). The 230 V AC is the type of current that utilities provide for standard household appliances such as TVs, refrigerators, radios, lighting, or charging laptops/mobile phones.
This represents a V wave, which is an approximate sine wave at the output. This solution is cheaper than pure sine wave inverters; however, due to the current output characteristics, it is not recommended for use with inductive motors, such as those used in central heating stoves.
Advantages of the modified inverter:
- Less complex design – fewer potential failure points
- lower price
The presented model can produce 1500W continuous power and up to 3000W peak power (the peak reserve capacity is useful when more power is needed to operate the device than for continuous operation).
In addition, the inverter also has a USB port for powering USB-compatible devices (e.g., mobile phones, laptops, tablets, MP3 players (e.g., p.>)).
