Rechargeable batteries are currently the best method to store electrical energy. The issue is they only store direct current or dc power.  Direct current holds it polarity constant. If you supplied direct current to standard electronics you would short circuit them. To power standard household devices you need AC power or alternating current. Alternating current switches polarity at a rate of 60 cycles per second. It would be impossible to manually switch the polarity of the direct current system without a circuit system known as an inverter. By using a dc to ac power inverter system you can now open...

DC to AC Power Inverters with built in battery chargers and automatic transfer switches can be used to back a home sump pump to avoid water damage during a power loss. If power is lost then well can flood and cause major water damage to your home. By connecting a inverter charger into your ac power supply you can protect yourself from this. THis type of DC to AC power inverter will auto detect power losses and switch over to direct current battery power during outages. When power is restored the built in charger will then begin charging the batteries...

When a truck driver is setting up a dc to ac power inverter in his truck he will need to make sure to cover a small checklist to select the right inverter size and where to connect his ac power supply. Once you take care of what and where you will be ready to head over to the inverter store and chose the right unit for you system. If you have small cabin truck you will probably what to go with a 2000 watt power invertor, if you have a large cabin truck like the one in the image below...

When using a dc to ac converter as an uninterruptible power supply there are several options. From gasoline based solutions such as a generator or dc to ac power inverters. When deciding how to convert dc to ac power you need to look at several components to make sure you setup the most cost and energy efficient solution that works best for you. If you are going to be using a solar power system or wind based charging system you will probably want to use 12 volt power supply to store your reserve power. You can acquire larger battery reserve...

Imagine the insanity of semi-truck or motor-home out on the road for weeks at a time without an ac power supply to run your electronics. That is why dc to ac power inverters are found in every truck and RV so you do not have to deal with being unplugged. Inverters use a dc power supply from a car battery and invert the current into a ac power supply. How inverters work? Alternating current changes its polarity 60 times per second (HZ) send power through the circuit one way and reversing another therefore it can hold a high 120 volt...
