The AIMS Power 800 Watt 12V modified sine wave power inverter converts 12V DC battery power into 120V AC output, delivering 800 watts of continuous power for vehicles, RVs, work trucks, boats, and off-grid battery setups. It includes 40-inch 8 AWG cables for direct battery connection, an aluminum case with a built-in cooling fan, and a pre-slotted mounting plate for more permanent installations. Dual three-prong AC receptacles provide two plug-in points for compatible devices, and front-panel LED indicators show power status and heavy load or fault conditions at a glance. Built-in protections cover overload, over-temperature, short circuit, high input voltage, and low voltage shutdown to help protect both the inverter and the connected battery. Note that while this inverter has a 1600 watt peak surge rating, AIMS Power states it is not designed for startup surge applications — always verify your device's wattage and startup requirements before connecting. AIMS Power backs this inverter with a 2-year parts and labor warranty.
This AIMS Power inverter is built to convert a 12V battery source into 120V AC output for compatible devices across a practical range of mobile and stationary applications. It is suited for vehicles, RVs, work trucks, marine setups, and small off-grid battery systems where reliable AC power is needed without a generator or shore power connection.
The inverter delivers 800 watts of continuous AC power and includes 40-inch 8 AWG cables for direct connection to a 12V battery. The pre-slotted mounting plate allows for a more secure installation in a vehicle, van, or off-grid cabinet when a fixed position is preferred. DC input operates between 10 and 15 volts, compatible with standard 12V battery sources.
This inverter produces a modified sine wave at 120V AC and 60Hz. Modified sine wave output is compatible with many small tools, battery chargers, fans, pumps, and general electronics, but some devices with sensitive power supplies or certain motor types may require a pure sine wave inverter. AIMS Power offers pure sine wave options for those applications. Always confirm your device's waveform requirements before use.
The inverter includes over-temperature protection with automatic shutdown, overload protection, AC output short circuit protection, internal fuse protection, high input voltage protection at 15.5V, and low input voltage shutdown at 10.5V. A low voltage alarm activates at 10.5V to warn of a dropping battery. The aluminum case and cooling fan assist with heat management during operation, keeping the unit compact at 9.25" x 3.5" x 2.25" and 2.6 pounds.
The AIMS Power 800W inverter connects directly to a 12V battery via the included 40-inch 8 AWG cables and delivers 120V AC output through two standard three-prong receptacles. The pre-slotted mounting plate supports a more permanent fixed installation in vehicles, vans, or off-grid enclosures.
With modified sine wave output and a full set of built-in electrical protections, this inverter is a practical choice for many compatible AC loads in mobile and off-grid settings. Always confirm continuous wattage, surge requirements, and waveform compatibility for your specific devices before use.
