    Power Bright PW2300-12 Power Inverter 2300 Watt 12 Volt DC To 110 Volt AC

    • The unit worked fantastically for about a month running a fridge, gas oven, lights, tv, fans, and everything else we plugged in
    • Unit instantly popped and smoked.
    • It would seem this would make a fine portable power unit for doing service work - say in your truck etc.
    • well do not buy this unit ..just bought a 2200 and i called florida to see if i could get some help..the guy on the phone could care less...did not ask for my name phone or email
    • After about 3 days of intermittent light use the unit began to hum and buzz with any load, even 100 watt light bulb
    • Unfortunately the Power Bright unit would only work for less than 2 minutes with the microwave on and the truck's engine running to keep up with the batteries

    • I liked the unit because it had a remote control making it easier than opening the bunk to turn on the replaced unit
    • We did this the entire time we were on the road and the unit was never even warm to the touch
    • I tested up to 2.5 kW, unit showed no stress, fan turned on after a few minutes
    • If I had my druthers, I'd druther have a pure sine wave unit, as my UPS units for my computers refuse to start up on the modified sine wave
    • looking for a dependable unit with great costumer service
    • The unit was working fine right up to the point where it quit, and caught fire
    • Unit only worked sometimes, had to send it back for refund.
    • Well, this unit is a *Beast* and I mean that in a good way!
    • I was pleased to find out that support was in the United States by english speaking technicians!I would recommend this unit.
    • Initially the unit worked when powering a fridge as an initial test.
    • The new unit works perfectly from anywhere in my house.
    • I figured the unit was dead but, it turned back on
    • so I think this unit is bad.
    • Also the unit makes a clicking noise when started which seems to be tied the the amount of power being used after some time it does seem to go away
    • We installed this unit and it worked for about 1 year then stopped working
    • dumb move .. stick to the heavy duty more dependable units at the truck stops and i promise you you will get more help at a truck stop..
    • however I would add that the 300W rating is certainly not a continuous rating and thus I would expect the unit to begin to warm even at moderate load after 5-10 hours of use
    • We installed this unit and it worked for about two weeks then stopped working.
    • I'm an electrical engineer and knew better, but I'm VERY disappointed this expensive unit did not have any fused protection or reset breaker!
    • I owned this for about 4 months and likely only have 2 hours total run time, this unit started smoking and would not turn off
    • Very good unit
    • The unit was built well enough to contain fire, but WOW
    • With that said I smelled the unit and as I was expecting it smelled fried inside
    • Unit performed well in the hot dusty desert at all power levels for over a week with no issues
    • What a great unit.
    • Unit is hefty and difficult to mount as the mounting holes are blocked by the positive battery connector
    • The unit is well thought out, with electrical connections spaced appropriately to reduce the chance of an accidental short circuit
    • The unit is almost silent at 150 watt load.
    • The unit was built well enough to contain fire, but WOW
    • The unit is not very compact and needs proper ventilation to avoid damaging from over heating
    • great unit,runs a/c's,tv's,coffee maker, but not microwave because of sine wave
    • If all you needed was to charge cordless batteries a much smaller unit would be fine.
