The Phoenix Inverter 12/375 120V VE.Direct is a Victron Energy inverter that runs from a 12 V battery and supplies 120 V AC through a NEMA 5-15R GFCI outlet. Its part number is PIN123750510. It is rated 375 VA, which is 300 W continuous at 25°C, 260 W at 40°C and a 700 W peak. Maximum efficiency is 89 %, and it draws 5.6 W with nothing connected.

Our take

With 300 W continuous and a 700 W peak, this 12 V inverter handles chargers and small electronics, and the figure drops to 260 W at 40°C. It also pulls 5.6 W with no load, so switch it off when nothing needs AC.

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.
