How to Know What Size Inverter You Should Buy

Are you wondering what size inverter your should buy for your ice cream truck?

It may take a little math – but it’s not that hard to figure out. Here’s a step by step for you to figure out which inverter you will need. It is dependent on what you want to run.

  1. Determine what you will need to run off of the inverter (appliances, etc.)
  2. Determine what how much power each appliance uses. You can find this information by looking at the specification plate on the appliance.
  3. If the specification plate gives you the power consumption in AMPS you can easily convert it to watts with this simple formula.AMPS X 120 = Watts (ex. appliance uses 10 AMPS – 10 AMPS X 120 = 1200 watts).
  4. Add up the total number of watts you will use on your inverter.
  5. You will need to have an inverter that supplies at least that many watts continuous load. It is wise to get an inverter that can handle 10 – 20% more watts than you expect you will need.
  6. Keep in mind that appliances need more power when they first start up. They generally need twice as much. For this reason, your inverter should have a higher peak surge rating that can handle this.
