This Victron inverter runs from a 24 V battery bank and delivers 120 V AC through a built-in NEMA 5-15R outlet. Continuous output is rated at 1,000 W at 25°C, with a peak rating of 2,200 W. Maximum efficiency is 91 %, and the enclosure carries an IP21 rating. It also has a VE.Direct communication port for connecting to other Victron gear.

Our take

A 24 V nominal battery voltage ties this inverter to a 24 V bank, so it is not a fit for a 12 V system. The 1,000 W continuous rating at 25°C and the 2,200 W peak rating set how much AC load it can carry aboard.

From our buying guide

On a boat subpart I covers, an electrical component must not ignite fuel vapor around it unless it is isolated from gasoline fuel sources. Ignition protection is the maker's statement.

Check before you buy:

  • It can follow your battery's profile, since not every charger can follow a lithium maker's.
  • On a boat subpart I covers, each ungrounded output conductor from a battery needs a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse within 72 inches of the battery.
