Handy if you ever use tools, small appliances, computers or other devices out in the field and need power. Also good for that RV life.

Yeah. I figured that, but just couldn't wrap my head around it. 53 bucks from 267 is s great deal for a 2k

I’m in the same boat. It’s an awesome deal, but I don’t need one. As soon as I pass it up, I will find a great use for it.....the day after the sale ends.

They come in handy.
I've had to use a laptop for work in field lots of times. It was used quite a bit during the last 32 hour power outage here.

Wonder if I could replace the one in my truck with one of these for more wattage? Never know when I might want to microwave while driving to work...

Ordered a 1500 watt for $27.62 with a $10 coupon. These are modified sine wave so not the greatest for more delicate/sensitive electronics but for the price..

What coupon?
I may "need" one of these.

mpollan1 · Nov 16, 2020

Ditto on the coupon. I already ordered (Thanks Buffalo) but would cancel and reorder.

speed-perks $10 voucher, they are serialized though and one time use. Even for the full price @ $38 I didn't need one but... prep stock.

This was tempting but it would only allow in-store pickup at certain inconvenient locations. No shipping to home.

AAP is dumping these off so its limited to whatever is going to be in stock at the stores.

I work in the ghetto and there is an AAP down the street from the office. I ordered a second one (1000w) and picked up there. Dude hands me a bag with the inverter unit and the three cables. "I don't know what happened to the box" :lol2:

Very Clean but someone returned it. I'll try it this evening and see what it does. $18.08 for 1k watt unit. If its a dud I'll return it tomorrow.

Turns lawn tractor into small AC generator.

Just remember you want one with PURE not modified sine wave for house hold electronics and some kitchen appliances as well. I put a 3000 watt pure sine wave in my sons new truck so he could have power for his computer,tv, fridge ect... I installed an Aims pure sine wave inverter and here is a link to Aims on the web. They are very well known and also their products are very dependable with no Chinese junk https://www.aimscorp.net/
With aims you do get your $$$ worth and the prices are not really all that bad as well.

You missed the point.
36 bucks, one can find a need.
279 bucks, one can't find a need.

TheWhiteBuffalo · Nov 16, 2020

I kept debating on whether I needed one, so I bought three (750, 1000 and 1500).

They are so cheap, I will sell them on eBay and make some money if I find I don’t use them.

Alan3413 · Nov 16, 2020

Are these true sine wave inverters? Was thinking I can run the furnace off one of these but the electronics hate square-wave inverters.

ETA: it is not. Has so-so reviews on Amazon.
