Safety, Efficiency, and Power Inverters

A power inverter changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC), but does not produce the power, itself. These inverters provide portable, efficient power, are convenient to use, and versatile of purpose. Power inverters from CyberPower convert automobile DC power to AC power to rapidly charge and power laptop computers, tablets (including iPads), MP3 players, and other USB mobile devices. They also supply surge protection to safeguard electronic equipment.

Our power inverters offer many features for safety and efficiency, including automatic shutdown, built-in surge protection, and soft start technology. For more information about these and other features, see the user manual or Web page for the specific power inverter that you want to use.

NOTE: Features vary by model.

Automatic-Shutdown ensures that the power inverter automatically turns off to prevent your battery from draining.

Built-in Surge Protection safeguards electronics against power fluctuations, such as those which occur during vehicle startup and shutdown.

Sensitive Electronics Safety Features provide surge protection and automatic shutdown to guard electronics against power fluctuations, temperature extremes, short circuits, and high or low battery conditions.

Soft Start Technology protects electronics against power fluctuations.

Why is my AI series power inverter not working?

Problem 1

No AC output – Yellow & Green LED lit

  • DC input is below 10.8 Vdc
    • Recharge or replace your vehicle’s battery

Problem 2

No AC output – Red & Green LED lit

  • Short circuit
    • Disconnect power inverter from the load
  • Overload
    • Reduce the load on the power inverter
  • Power Inverter hot
    • Disconnect the load and operate the power inverter for a few minutes

Problem 3

No AC output – Green LED not lit

  • Bad connection or wiring
    • Tighten all the DC connections

Problem 4

Buzzer Alarm

  • Low battery or high battery voltage
    • Recharge the battery or check your vehicle’s battery voltage

Problem 5

Motorized power tool will not operate

  • Excessive startup load. If the startup load exceeds the inverter peak load capability it will not work.
    • Disconnect the load until the power inverter operates normally and connect the load again
