What Size Inverter Do I Need to Run a TV? - SONECPOWER

Many people do not understand how to choose the right inverter to fit their home TV, the next few specific steps to choose the right inverter

First, determine the specifications of your TV.

Users can learn from the manual the exact power wattage required for the device to work, as well as the exact voltage consumed by the TV, and only through these specific data can they choose the right inverter.

Second, consider the additional power required by the inverter device.

Generally speaking, the inverter itself or the transmission process needs to consume a certain amount of power, this process produces additional power consumption. Generally speaking, this additional power within 6% of the total power.

For example, if the power of a TV is 250, then the power of the inverter you need should be 250 watts divided by 94%, so that the power required by the inverter is about 265 watts, of course, different inverters require different additional power, need to be treated on a case-by-case basis. At the same time, it is best to use a short thin cable to connect the TV to the inverter, which can minimize the loss of energy in the form of heat.

Third, pay attention to the number of devices connected to the inverter

If multiple devices are connected to a single inverter, you need to make sure that the total wattage of the total device is lower than the maximum wattage that the inverter can provide, generally speaking, if the inverter capacity reaches about 85%, it can not be connected to other devices.

To summarize:

Choosing the right inverter is largely a matter of having the specifications of the TV in your home as well as factoring in the extra power required by the inverter. Try to choose an inverter that is a few tens of watts larger than the power required by your own TV as a solution to the problem of power fluctuations and unstable device connections.

The required inverter specifications for some TVs are as follows (for reference only)
