Down Under On The Bucket Farm
Hi Everybody,
Please feel free to correct me on anything...
My understanding is that low-cost inverters (12v-to-mains-
voltage) usually put out AC with a "Modified Sine" wave (which
could, more honestly be called, a "Modified Square" wave.)
And, apparantly, that AC tends to cause lots of problems trying
to run computers.
I am curious:
I have my laptop computer with its external power transformer
(220v AC going to 14v DC) plugged into an APC-Brand UPS.
If I get a cheap "Modified Sine" wave inverter to run from a 12v
battery source, will the UPS unit smooth out the 220 supply to
properly function with the computer?
Thanks in advance for all of your advice...
