Whistler inverters convert low voltage, direct current (DC) to 110 volt alternating household current (AC). The AC output is called “modified sine wave”. Operating Principles” section for more information. Depending on the model and its rated capacity, Whistler inverters draw power either from standard 12 volt automobile and marine batteries or from portable high power 12 volt sources. 3 pro800w.4/30/2010 9:00 AM Page 7 WHISTLER FEATURES WHISTLER FEATURES 1.
