1 Answer

Answer :

Inverter will be OK. Will you be running off the battery, or while driving? You don’t want a dead battery. Continuous output of 265W means it will use 530W of battery power every hour. 12V x AmpHour rating will give you WattHour. Compare that to 530 WattHour for the inverter and you can figure out how many hours to a dead battery.
