Compact 12 V car inverter

The Tripp Lite PV100USB converts a vehicle 12 V DC supply into 120 V AC power. It delivers 100 W continuous and 200 W peak output through a single 5-15R outlet and a 12 V cigarette lighter socket. Two USB ports provide 2.1 A and 1.0 A charging currents. A 3-foot cord connects the unit to the vehicle power source.

Suits phones, tablets and laptops.

Travellers who need to run smartphones, tablets, laptops, GPS units or small entertainment devices will find the 100 W capacity adequate. Users wanting to operate hair dryers, microwave ovens, power tools or other loads above 100 W continuous should look for a higher-rated inverter. The single AC outlet also limits simultaneous mains-powered devices.

100 W continuous output decides fit

The 100 watt continuous rating is the key figure that determines whether a specific device can be powered. Check the appliance label; if its draw exceeds 100 W the inverter will shut down or trip. Peak capacity of 200 W only covers brief start-up surges. Match the load to this continuous limit before purchase.

Questions about this item

What size 12 V DC power socket does the PV100USB plug into?

The inverter connects to a standard 12 V cigarette lighter socket in the vehicle.

Which step do users often miss when installing the inverter?

Start the vehicle engine before plugging in the inverter so the 12 V supply is active and the inverter powers on.

When should the internal fuse be checked or replaced?

If the AC outlet and both USB ports stop delivering power while the vehicle socket still works, the internal fuse has likely blown and needs replacement.
