Will an inverter drain my battery?

Using an inverter in your car is nothing new. This device brings a lot of convenience, and you can use most of the appliances in or near your car.

However, if not used properly, the inverter can drain the battery.

Why does the inverter drain the battery while driving?

When you drive your car, the engine is running and the battery has enough power to continuously supply the inverter. But when the engine is abnormal or you just stop the car, the battery will eventually discharge and be drained when the inverter is connected.

How can I prevent the inverter from draining the battery?

1. Stop using the inverter before draining the battery

2. Use a backup deep-cycle battery specially prepared for the inverter

3. Use a generator with a built-in battery charger

4. Choose an inverter with an efficiency of 90% or higher. High efficiency inverters consume less power compared to low efficiency inverters
