Frequently Asked Questions
Will the NTX-1500-12 run a microwave?
A compact 700 watt microwave draws roughly 1100 watts from the outlet, which fits inside the 1500 watt continuous rating, with the surge rating covering start-up. Check the label on the back of yours before you buy: what matters is input watts, not cooking watts.
What size battery cable does a 1500 watt inverter need?
At rated load this inverter pulls about 150 amps from the 12 volt battery, so cable gauge and fusing matter more than most buyers expect. The Samlex manual specifies gauge by run length. Send us your planned cable run and we will confirm gauge and fuse size before you order.
Will it drain my battery when nothing is running?
No-load draw is under 0.9 amps, about 10 amp-hours over a full night. That is a light load for a 100Ah house battery, but worth switching off when the vehicle sits parked for days.
What comes in the box?
The inverter, the NTX-RC LCD remote, and 16 feet of remote connection wire. DC battery cables are not included, because the right gauge depends on your run length.
