I just bought a Stanly Fat Max 140 watt dc to ac inverter $24 Walmart. Looking to power my Mac computer (battery doesn't hold charge anymore) and what ever else I need to power up when on the road.
I plugged in the inverter and it reads 107 volts with just key on acc. and 90 volts with motor running with my volt meter?
Is the 90 volts going to be ok to run my computer, charge batteries or run other electronic device? It powdered a shop light with no problem so far.
I had a more expensive $80 inverter I got from a Apple store that worked fine for many years till it died. Never thought to check its voltage as it didn't hurt the computer.
How many volts should an inverter put out? What is an acceptable voltage range for a inverter?
