The Victron Inverter 24/1200 is a 24 V inverter with a built-in NEMA 5-15R GFCI outlet, so it needs a 24 V battery bank. It is rated for 1,000 W continuous output at 25°C, with a 2,200 W peak. The 1,200 VA figure is for a nonlinear load at 25°C. Maximum efficiency is 91 %, and zero-load power is 11 W. The enclosure carries an IP21 rating.
Our take
The 11 W zero-load power is a steady draw from the 24 V bank whenever this inverter is switched on with nothing running, against a 1,000 W continuous rating. Its 2,200 W peak figure sits well above that continuous output.
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.
