Ultra-Compact Car Inverter 150W

The Tripp Lite PV150USB converts 12V DC vehicle power into 110V AC household current and adds two USB charging ports. It delivers a continuous 150 watts with a 300 watt peak capacity through a standard NEMA 5-15R outlet and a three-foot input cord. A built-in fan and automatic shutdown protect the unit from overheating or excessive battery drain.

For Mobile Device Charging and Small Electronics

This inverter suits drivers who need to run laptops, tablets, phones, GPS units or similar low-power gear while on the road. It is not for anyone wanting to operate appliances that draw more than 150 watts continuously, such as full-size microwaves, hair dryers or power tools with high start-up surges.

150 Watt Continuous Output Limit

The single specification that decides fit is the 150 watt continuous rating; every connected device must stay within this total or the inverter will shut down. Peak power reaches 300 watts only for brief surges, so sustained loads above 150 watts cannot be supported.

Questions about this item

What is included in the box and what must be purchased separately?

The package contains the PV150USB 150W PowerVerter Ultra-Compact Car Inverter and an owner's manual. The inverter plugs into a 12V DC vehicle outlet using its built-in three-foot cord, so no additional cables are required for basic operation.

How do I decide between the AC outlet and the two USB ports for my devices?

Use the NEMA 5-15R AC outlet for devices that need standard 110V AC power up to 150 watts continuous, such as laptops or small appliances. Use the 2.1A USB port for faster charging of tablets or phones and the 1.0A USB port for standard phone charging.

What does the 150W continuous rating mean when the inverter is running in my vehicle?

It means you can power devices that together draw up to 150 watts continuously from the 120V AC outlet. The inverter will shut down automatically if the total load exceeds this limit or if the vehicle battery voltage drops to 10V.
