Eaton PV100USB – 100W Ultra-Compact Car Inverter

Product Overview

The Eaton PV100USB PowerVerter is a 100-watt ultra-compact car inverter that converts 12V DC vehicle power into standard 120V AC power for charging and running small electronics on the road. This compact car power inverter suits mobile workers, field technicians and travelers who need AC power for phones, tablets and other lower-wattage devices in a car, truck, boat or RV. An integrated AC outlet, 12V cigarette lighter socket and two USB ports provide flexible charging options from one unit.

Product Description

The PV100USB delivers 100 watts of portable AC power, converting a vehicle's 12V DC supply into standard 120V AC output suitable for a range of electronics including smartphones, laptops, tablets, GPS units, game systems, portable TVs, DVD players and MP3 players, as well as low-power lights, camping accessories and mobile office equipment. In addition to its AC outlet, the unit includes a 12V cigarette lighter socket, a 2.1A USB port and a 1.0A USB port, giving users several ways to power and charge devices simultaneously from one inverter.

Setup is simple: the DC input jack, attached to a convenient 3-foot cord, plugs directly into the vehicle's 12V cigarette lighter socket, and the unit is ready to operate. A front LED confirms the inverter is receiving power from the battery. To protect the vehicle's battery from being drained, the PV100USB automatically shuts off when input voltage falls to 10V, and it will also shut down if internal temperatures rise too high, such as when connected devices exceed the 100-watt rating. A built-in ventilation fan manages heat during extended use, and the durable plastic housing is engineered to withstand the demands of road trips, campouts, business travel and family vacations with no required maintenance.
