So you know what to look for in an
inverter, but what are the best power inverter brands? I personally have two beloved
inverter brands… one for low to mid variety inverters and the other for higher
end inverters (the kind you'd use in an off grid or grid-tie system).
My lesser end brand is Xantrex. You
can get inverters from them from 500 watts all the way to 3000 watts. The build
quality is very good and they are built with quality mechanism.
I recommend Xantrex inverters if
you're just preliminary your grid-tie or off grid system and you want to grow
your system as you get funds. Start with a 1000 watt - 1500 watt inverter and then
you can improve as you add more power. One thing you are going to need to make
sure you watch out for is that you get a unadulterated sine wave inverter.
Xantrex does make customized sine wave inverters, but you can only use one if
you don't plan on organization any electronics with it.
While the pure sine wave inverters
do cost more than customized sine wave inverters the cost is well worth it.
Modified sine wave inverters cause all sorts of evils with electronics which is
why I only counsel using them for things like heaters or pumps which don't necessitate
a pure sine wave.
My personal desired power inverter brands
are Outback Inverters. These are like the Ferrari's of inverters and with good
reason... they are extremely reliable and the build quality is outstanding.
I nominate Outback Inverters as the
best power inverter brand because of the notice to detail. Sure the Xantrex
inverters are pretty good quality, but outback gives you the best creation they
are able to.
One of the reasons Outback wins is
simply because of their power competence. If you buy an inverter that is more
efficient that means you have to produce less power to get the same output and
the Outback inverters fall in the range of 92% - 94% efficient. That fact alone
means that the inverter will construct between 5% - 10% more power simply by
using it compared to other inverters.
