The 2000w is really well constructed but, with most of the cheaper inverters, cheap capacitors make a big drain on the battery on start up. The battery connection cables could not handle the drawdown on my two 129Ah batteries (in parallel), and constantly tripped the low voltage alarm and shutdown of the unit. When I switched to, professionally made heavy duty cables, the inverter works beautifully. By comparison, I purchased a Giantz 3000w/6000w inverter which I returned very quickly. Poorly made, loose connections and failed to perform as well as the 2000w/4000w. If you can get away with the smaller inverter, I suggest stay with the 2000w. Overall, the earlier model shows great professionalism and sturdiness of construction. Certainly, I would recommend the 2000w. If Giantz can start to make their more powerful models to the same standard as the 2000w, I think that the company could have a great future.Read full review

I have tested this on several different items of varying wattage. This only successfully runs items that are less than 10000w. I believe the claim of 2000w is lies. I contacted the supplier, but they continue to lie and try to te me a 1100w microwave (max power) wont rin on a 2000w inverter. This is rubish, because I have another 2000w inverter which runs it fine. Be warned...this product is not a 2000w inverter. Its likely a 1000w continuous and 2000w surge inverter.

The fan on the inverter wont stop running even on very cold nights, so the <1amp per hour idle is not possible as it states and is very noisy. There was no power cables delivered as it states there are in the pictures and discription.

I was very skeptical before purchasing but upon receiving and installing it, I was pleasantly surprised. I have it hooked up to my camping batteries and have run a 1500W coffee machine making coffee pod coffee and producing instant hot water for tea. My only complaint is the location of the fuses inside the chassis. I haven't needed to replace any fuses yet but if I ever do, it will require the opening of the unit, which when dealing with a device that produces 240V is not ideal. Also, the fuse setup is like 5 x 40 amp fuses in parallel. Basically, this means that as soon as one fuse blows, the load in the other 4 will instantly increase by 25%, which will then blow all of the other fuses in quick succession. An externally accessible circuit breaker would have made much more sense. As the other reviewer pointed out, it is rather noisy and the fan in constantly only, but I ran a spit at a campsite for 5 hours off of this just off of the batteries.Read full review

I tested found 239.9v across active and neutral terminal and 89v between active and earth terminal. This is not australian standard. Any idea for solve it or need a return please. I know most of the equipments will work without earth but this particular equipment will look for proper earthing. What can I do now?
