A Word About Whistler Power Inverters
Whistler inverters convert low voltage, direct current (DC)
to 110 volt alternating household current (AC). The AC
output is called “modified sine wave”. See “Technical
Operating Principles” section for more inform a t i o n .
Depending on the model and its rated capacity, Whistler
inverters draw power either from standard 12 volt automo-
bile and marine batteries or from portable high power 12
volt sources.
Inverter Features
a). ON/OFF Switch.This switch controls the flow of power
from the power source to the inverter. It does not control
the power running from the inverter to the equipment or
appliance being operated.
b). High Temperature LED Indicator Light. This light will
turn RED and the inverter will automatically shut down
when the internal temperature exceeds design parameters
