How many watts does this pull? Do you know if it will run off of a 2,000 watt power inverter?

I had posted a link to the owners manual here but I don't see it now. I would "Google" the manual and see if you can get all your questions answered.

The inverter requires a 12v source it does not have a rechargeable battery in it. You could bring along a 12v battery and use that as a power source, but pulling 1200 watts from a battery is 100 amps, so it would drain a smaller sized battery in minutes if not less.

According to the specs, yes, it should. It might be my specific inverter, but I've had it shut down with just a 3/8ths-inch power drill. It doesn't pull any more than a couple hundred watts at start-up. This doesn't happen every time though. You might be fine, but a little more money for a larger one might save you some aggravation.

At 110v and 20 watts per foot it should pull approximately .18 amps i believe.

You can move it around as much as you'd like! I used to have a smaller 200 watt inverter that I dragged back and forth between the house and my car without a problem. Just make sure it's turned off when you're ready to unplug it and don't plug it in to another source unless the unit is switched to off.

1000 watts will run fine from a single outlet!What they are saying that you cannot pull more than 1000 watts total from both outlets. If one outlet draws 750 watts, you have 250 watts left for the second outlet!

I cannot speak to the inverter issue but if outputs 60hz 1120v current it should work fine. The power setting are extremely consistent if set on temperature they are within two to three degrees of the indicated temperature almost always on the high side(i.e. if set at 80 degrees F the actual temp with my unit will be 82 degrees. Overall it seems to be of high quality.

The instructions say that it draws 18 watts. So a 12V 2 amp (or higher amp rating) power supply would run it.

No, it is just a basic 1000W inverter. I think you are mistaking an inverter for a Universal Power Supply (UPS) that has a small battery in it to keep your electronics running for a short time in the case of a power outage.

I only wish I knew.It just runs on a regular current....I do not know what an inverter is. I sure do like mine under my desk.

You'd have to figure out the current draw of your particular model. The inverter size only accounts for how many watts you can pull at once. High wattage items require bigger inverters (the fridge, heaters, microwaves) but these items will also drain a battery fast. A baby inverter might run a cell phone charger and some LED lights for a long time but these are low wattage (low power demand) items...The items demand and the battery capacity determine run time. Do the math and check this out.... http://www.cpaptalk.com/viewtopic/t4590/12v-DC-current-draw-for-REMStar-Auto.html Also....for insurance, some of us off road types run two deep cycle batteries...insurance for failure and also double the capacity for trail tools and welders.

No. If you need 2000 watts you will need an inverter that puts out 2000 watts. You could connect two inverters to you batteries but not to each other.

Yes just find out how much amps and watts it uses and buy a inverter that's enough for it.

Im running 5 x250 watt panels. This 1000 watt GT inverter has worked wonderfully for me.

This unit has about a 1620 watt draw. I have a 5000 one and it works great matatically it shout work when running. The problem u may run into is the start up wattage. Many a/c unit can go about 4 times higher to start up the unit which would be around 6400 watts. My inverter has a 10k start up and it fires it up. I would guess u will have less than a 50-50 shot the generator will fire it up. If is can then your generator will give it the power it needs

I did use a 12 volt 500 watt power converter to 115 volt hooked to my pickup battery to run the fan. This worked but I don't know how long the fan will run without the pickup running.

Great! now I need to decide on the proper inverter to use. The 1000 watt pure sine may be over-kill for just a TV/ DVD player and a couple 60 watt bulbs. Would a smaller watt inverter make more sense?
