12v inverter

[nelis]

Hi there.

Looking for a 12v 1kw inverter max. We have a spare gel battery so might as well use it to power our nvr + 11 CCTV camera and router etc. I think a 500w - 1KW inverter will do the job. The charge current mustn't be too low, and we don't want to spend too much. Doesn't have to be grid tied.

Must have Solar input

Look for those car amplifier type inverters, I have a 600W but it doesn't have a charger, I would still recommend the brand, it's called Sky King. I got it from these guys but you can shop around for better prices, look for the ones with a built in charger.

The problem with those is they have to be manually switched to charging, it can't provide power and charge. Rather get a proper one like the trolley types.

Good point, I forgot about that, to keep costs down he/she can even do without the trolley, just an inverter.

Hi there.

Looking for a 12v 1kw inverter max. We have a spare gel battery so might as well use it to power our nvr + 11 CCTV camera and router etc. I think a 500w - 1KW inverter will do the job. The charge current mustn't be too low, and we don't want to spend too much. Doesn't have to be grid tied.

Hi, I am estimating your load at about 350 watt including a monitor, and a 20% safety margin.

You will need 700wh from the battery to get through two hours of loadshedding.

You will then need to charge the battery again within 4 hours for the next bout of loadshedding. Unfortunately you cannot exceed more than 10% of capacity charge rate on a lead or gel acid battery. It's going to be very difficult to get a lead acid or gel battery safely charged in the 4 hours. Unless you have a very high capacity battery and the appropriate charger.

That's why even a basic solar panel is always a good idea on a lead acid setup.

I have a wattage meter so will check when I have the time maybe tonight or tomorrow to see what the power consumption for this setup is. We will not be using a monitor/tv with the system.

The camera system uses 1.65KWh per day and I checked right now it's using during the day about +-60W. So not much. Will have to check tonight when the IR is on.

The thing is we had a 4 gel battery system here at work. 1 of them broke so we have 1 spare that we can use cause need either 24v/48v for the system we use at work and now 1 battery is 12v so can reuse that as backup for router and camera. batteries is 200ah.
