Product Overview
Tripp Lite's new PINV power inverters convert 12V DC power from your vehicle's battery into 120V AC (household) power and USB charging. This allows users to keep operating devices while on the road. These inverters are ideal for construction sites, campsites, and vehicles that serve as mobile offices. Their compact size makes them conveniently portable, and their advanced protection features help them safely deliver up to 3000W output when wall outlets are not available.
