Ring Inverters:
Great value products from a great British name in automotive electrical! Ring's 12v Inverters power 220-240v AC mains
equipment directly from a 12v source. Just plug the inverter into the
vehicle’s cigarette lighter or connect directly to a 12v
battery to convert the voltage to mains AC power.
All Ring 12v inverters
include the following key safety features: two-way fuse protection, low
battery shutdown protection, low battery voltage alarm, over voltage
protection, overload protection and temperature protection. Also the
1000w, 2000w and 3000w inverters fitted with the remote switch socket
take the RINVS1 remote. We are now stocking their most popular products
- all great value for money from the very handy 75w pocket version shown
left to the powerful 1, 2 and 3Kw versions above right and below. Buy Now >>>
How do I choose? Choosing an inverter is fairly simple but
there are limitations. In principle you just add up the 'wattage' you
want to connect at one time and that's the size you need. In practice
it's slightly more complicated because 'you don't get ought for nought'.
This means you have to pay for the 20x gain in volts by providing 20x
more amps. As a result a 1Kw Inverter will draw maybe 90 amps at full
power - that's a lot of amps and that means big cables, efficient
cooling of all the heat generated, and a rather rapidly flattened
battery! As long as you understand and manage all those issues,
these are extremely useful items for short term use or for when the
engine is running and the alternator is providing all those extra amps. An important characteristic to look
for is a high surge tolerance for 'starting' things like air-con units -
these powerful Ring inverters are very well specified with a double
capacity surge capability (more on the 3000!).
To help with 'wattage' we've provided a
copy of Ring's application guide as a downloadable PDF, click here.
PowerSource MP75 - 12v 75w.
A
'pocket' product. Voted Best Buy in Auto Express in Feb 2006! Transform
your vehicle into a mobile office or home from home and never be caught
short of electrical power again! This is an extremely useful small
75W invertor that deserves a place in almost every vehicle. Using a
modified sine wave, this unit has an excellent surge rating of 150W and
is rated at 56W continuous and only 0.1A 'off line'. At just about three
inches long with a clever flexible elbow design the MP 75 can be used in
all 12v vehicles providing they have a cigarette lighter socket - even
where it is somewhat buried in a fascia or tray. Absolutely ideal for
powering and charging mobile phones, camcorders, digital cameras and
rechargeable batteries like NiMH, plus many laptops & notebooks and even
some games consoles. Simply plug the MP75 into a cigarette lighter
socket and plug in the 240V device, then you have portable 'mains'
electricity suitable for powering portable devices up to 75 watts
capacity. But what fantastic value!

Electrical Cable: Automotive & equipment wire / wiring / cable. Whenever I've done electrical work on our
motorhome I've always struggled to find cable supplies somewhere between
professional length rolls and those hideously expensive short lengths you
find in motor accessory shops! So here are our best efforts - 30m and
50m rolls of reasonably priced cable / wire in a variety of ratings to suit
everything from adding a light to running a bigger inverter or upgrading or
installing an extra battery. Single or twin
reels in red & black
pvc sheathing only, the twins are in black outers and are in very handy lengths for smaller jobs.

For our Solar panels we
recommend 2x 2.5mm for short runs and 2x 3mm or even 4-4.5mm for longer
runs. Although the charging current will only be a fraction of the cable
capacity these larger cables have less voltage drop over distance and
therefore maximise the charge actually reaching the battery - this will be
of most benefit when you need it most - when charging is poor in winter e.g.
