Will this work for a Clothes Washer? It's a much higher power demand than a pc or IT equipment.Any ideas for higher power regulator??

Probably not. Some washers and especially dryers usually take 220 instead of 110. For just a washing machine you might be able to use this, but they are not prone to problems from voltage fluctuations, so not sure it is needed either.

I use it on my HE washer and gas dryer, but you'll have to match the power requirements of your washer to the capabilities of this unit which is 600 watts. You could plug your washer into a Kill A Watt meter(search Amazon) to determine real world usage if you can't find the info in your manual or online. I also unplug the line conditioner when I'm done. With the newer electronic washers and dryers, protecting them from voltage fluctuations should extend their life. If you need 220v you should look at something like Tripp Lite LR1000 or LR2000.

Yes it should work, I stopped using mine becUse the stand by power was too much, But if you turn it on while doing a few loads of wash you wont be wasting power as long as the washer is in use.

This type of device works fine with a 110-volt washer/dryer combo; I've used them for years. But this particular model will NOT work, since its capacity (just 100 watts) is so low. Read the electrical data plate on your appliances to see how much power they use (wattage), and then buy a transformer that is sized accordingly. This manufacturer sells transformers up to 3,000 watts...so if your washer/dryer combo uses less than that, you're good.

As long as the power consumption from the machine does NOT exceed 400W. I don't think it does but just make sure. You can look on the stickers of the machine and find out.Note that this converter is the higher end model not like the other cheaper model that do NOT have the pure sine wave output (those goes for like ~$60).

Mine was sistema electric and it worked fine. The package come with an adaot for where the hose plugs into the washer itself. I would say that it is likely that it does if what you have is a threaded pipe as the water output from your power washer.

Yes it will but You need to check the power rating as well. My device needed at least 600W so I bought this transformer of 700W. washer and dryer might need higher watt I am guessing

With a *proper* transformer (converter), that should be no problem. Check all the specs and make sure the transformer is capable to handle heavy duty appliances like this steamer. In doubt? Contact Jiffy.

I think most of the electric power washers have a standard connection. I looked at the one you mentioned and I think it will work fine.

Sorta. AC watts output and DC watts input are not quite the same thing. I would be thinking "amps" instead of "watts". First, this is a modified sine wave inverter. It will work on most appliances, but not all. 3,000 AC watts in appliances is within specs for this inverter. However, if you think one or two batteries connected to it will work...I wouldn't even try. To run that much power, you are going to need at a minimum of 4-6 batteries wired in parallel (12v) with very large battery cables (0-gauge or thicker). At 3,000 AC watts this inverter will likely draw over 250 amps from the batteries. A typical deep cycle marine battery will have 100-125 amp/hours. When you parallel, you add amp hours. Two batteries (200-250) or four batteries (400-500 amp hours). Running 3,000 watts AC out of this inverter is possible, if you have enough batteries, thick battery cables, and something to recharge them...cause you will drain them QUICK. Your battery cables must be rated to handle this much amperage. Download the Power Bright Owners Manual, call them, or do a Google search...be safe. Good luck.

I doubt it depending on the pressure that your electric washer produces. I have 3500psi available which works fine.

I did use it on a small electric water heater of 1500 watts for a few times and it worked fine. I had it come on for about 15 minutes per day for a few days. The instructions say it can handle up to about 1800 watts.

I have not used it for a washing machine, I only have it hooked up for my shower right now or for hot water for dishes. I don't see why it couldn't be used for that though because that's just cold/hot water hook up just like this unit provides. When I turn on the water supply, that surge kicks on the battery operated igniter that lights the gas, which gives constant hot water. So as long as the unit kicks on to get the hot water when you turn on the machine you should be a go.

Very likely (&gt;90%) yes. The extra converter power of 2000W compared to the 1440W should be sufficient. Yet, there is a small uncertainly, as the starting power of appliances like vacuum cleaners is sometimes significantly more.

I am not an expert by any means, with regard to the application you describe above, however ;my experience with this PWM, while hooked up to a heavy duty 12 Volt car battery and a Hydrogen producing cell block; performs the VERY same as a Rheostat normally would. I have yet to hook it up to anything below12v(such as the 3.90 A 12 volt power source you mention) and see what results I can get.

You need to have enough power (Watts) on the device. My wife uses these transformers for dryers (~1600W), and similar appliances, without issues.

No, would not recommend it. Typically electric dryers use up 4,400 watts of power, so the transformer would have to be at least double or triple that wattage (I agree with the previous commentator).

You need to ask an electrician. I just plugged mine in to a standard American 110 wall outlet and it works great. Oh and both washer and dryer run and works on the same outlet at the same time.

I ran a small 400 watt inverter off of this unit to operate a laptop computer up on the dash of my motorhome while underway. Worked fine but the key of course is having it on a properly fused 12 volt circuit matched to whatever device your trying to run. This unit has a 15 amp limit. Use it improperly and I'm sure it would burn up.
