2000 WATT PURE SINE POWER INVERTER 12 VOLT DC TO 120V AC

Unit stopped working after a month of use. Support very slow and unhelpful, so I opened it up to check internal fuses. Incredibly I found a 3 sq inch circuit board loose inside!!As shown in the photo it belongs in the open spot labeled “DC to DC”. The design uses only the solder between solder pads at right angles to hold the board in place. As bad as that seems design-wise, there was hardly any solder there doing that job.If I can get a dialog going with support and less than 48 hour turn around, maybe they will consider this a defect and replace it, although opening it surely voided any warranty. However since my inverter is in my RV and cannot live vibration-free, I don’t see how this invert can last very long. It’s a crappy product, presumably from a crappy company.

I purchased this unit from Amazon early in September, 2014 but it sat in the box until I got my act together in Mid July of 2015 when I installed solar panels, and integrated the PS-2000 with a charge controller, several solar power storage batteries to form an off-grid system to power my small, remote barn. When all done, everything powered up perfectly. It's mainly used for a few LED lights, and an electric overhead door opener. I did use it to run a shop vac for about 15 minutes to clean up the mess I made installing things and all was fine. And at one point I tried running a water pump for a garden sprinkler but the initial power surge proved too much for the inverter and the overload safety feature kicked in. I just shrugged, figured I had made too much of a demand on the unit. Then all was fine for the summer, fall and winter. Except that the wireless remote receiver seemed to pick up spurious signals that would put the unit into standby mode unexpectedly. When I unplugged the wireless remote receiver from the inverter, that stopped happening.Then came the big problem. I went out to the barn yesterday a couple days ago and found the system down with the fault light blinking. The batteries were showing a full charge. So, I turned off the power switch and then back on at which time the fault light started blinking again but now with a synchronous warning beep. Once again I turned it off and then unplugged EVERYTHING from the unit figuring that something had gone wrong with my door opener or something. And when I turned the power back on, the 200 amp fuse in the line from the battery bank blew out! So now it is fried and I'm on my second day of waiting to speak with someone from Royal Power to discuss this situation and possible repair.This inverter was very lightly used during the 9-1/2 months it actually functioned - I go out to he barn just once or twice a week to do things and when I do, it is just to open the door and maybe turn on a light or two if it is dark. So, I have to say that I am very disappointed in the reliability of the ROYAL POWER PS-2000 PURE SINE INVERTER.Mat 12 Update - The company responded briefly to my email concerning getting the unit serviced - asked for my phone number which I provided. That was 5 days ago, but no call yet.When I called them., I just got an answering machine and no return call.

I just have to say that this inverter was working fine for about 4 months and then suddenly, it didn't power on. I had to open it up to check the 12 fuses it has inside. I found that 8 fuses were bad. I replaced them and when I plugged in the battery cables, it blowed the fuses again, seems that something is bad inside. I sent and email to the seller asking for help or any reply back about this but didn't get anything back from them... If you want an inverter that last longer, don't buy this one.*******Update ********After some days, I got a reply back from seller, they asked me to send the inverter back so they can check it out. After a couple of weeks, they said that it was bad and a that they are going to send me back a new one. After some weeks I got it and it was completely new, I installed it and as of now, it is still working fine.Thanks.

Just received this Royal Power 2000 Watt pure sine wave inverter. Very pleased. Even comes with heavy gage wire. Tested on car battery with engine off at first. Ran hair dryer, ran toaster oven, ran griddle and ran coffee maker. With the battery input voltage at the minimum the beeper came on as advertized. Went ahead and started car and let it charge. Turned on 1700 watt griddle again and found that car could not keep up with discharge. Thats ok, at least inverter did its job. I know that additional batteries will give me more time in high use. Thank you Royal Power for this well made product. Needed to add this note. Have been using the inverter now 24 hours a day for 6 months minus rainy day time. Have 8 batteries to back up the inverter at night and 1100 watts of solar panel power to charge batteries. Very happy with inverter.

At least initially, I am extremely happy with this inverter. It performed better than I expected under a reasonably heavy amp draw, my wife's hair dryer, which was pulling 14.2 amp according to the display on the inverter. I installed this inverter in my travel trailer to avoid having to run the generator every time AC power was needed. I wired the AC supply into my main power panel so that the entire system is live while the inverter is on. This unit has definitely exceded my expectations so far.
