The Wagan Tech SlimLine 1500 Watt Inverter is high output, compact, and slim; hence the reason it is in their Slimline family of power inverters. They dubbed this line “Slimline” as all of the inverters are high performance but as slim and compact as possible.
Taking cues from its big brother, the SlimLine 1500 Watt Inverter is small in size, but offers huge performance. 1500 Watts of TrueRated power, 3 AC receptacles (wall power outlet) as you’d find in your home, 2 USB Power Ports, thermal cooling fans, and a slew of safeties built in, the SlimLine 1500 Watt Inverter is exactly what you’ve been looking for!
In your vehicle, boat, motorcycle, RV, truck, Camper, tail-gating, camping, kid’s soccer games, or anywhere you need to turn DC (battery) power into AC (household) power is where the SlimLine 1500 Watt Inverter will shine! 1500 continuous watts means that you can run your appliance without worry of the SlimLine 1500 Watt Inverter letting you down like lesser inverters. Blender, TV, gaming systems, refrigerator, microwave, computer, cooking appliances, and other household electronics are all able to be powered!

TrueRated Power
TrueRated Power is Wagan Tech’s coined term for truth in advertising and performance. Simply put, our TrueRated inverters are tested at full load (the number printed on the inverter) and will sustain that load continuously for 24 hours.
For example, our SlimLine 500 Watt Inverter will run for 24 hours straight with a 500 Watt load. Our competitors claim "continuous wattage" when in fact most are only rated at 20 minutes of continuous wattage. After 20 minutes, the competitors output wattage will drop down by as much as 25% of their claimed wattage (in a 500 watt inverter, that can be a 125 watt loss!).

I use this for off grid camping and it will run my 65 qt fridge for 2 days with out a recharge. It fully charges on AC in about an hour and about 4 hours on my 160 watt panel. It weighs less than 20 lbs and has a small footprint. Great software interface..what is not to like!
