Lets correct this since it seems to be an on-going thread, an inverter is an electrical
device that converts direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC).
What we are dealing with here is simply a DC voltage booster to kick the 6v up to 12v.
One of the small cubes has been powering my Sun Pro Tach and Sony CDX GT420U
AM/FM/Compact Disc player for five or six years now and I’ve never blown a fuse.
Although the radio is capable of 52w x4 I’m not trying to drive a four component speaker
system with that much power. I found a pair of cheap 10 or 15w speakers that will slip in
the door that supply plenty of volume. I’ve got no problem hearing talk radio, the oldies
stations or big band music from a CD while I‘m cruising down the road at speed.
But I agree it won’t supply enough power to drive a wiper or heater motor and if you were
trying to drive some big honkin‘ 100w speakers you would no doubt be blowing fuses
with it.
