Batteries Used In Home Inverter
Online, October 30, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Inverter batteries - the most essential part of any home inverter system, is also the least appreciated part in the system. Buyers are least concerned about buying a battery for their home inverters. Power outage here in India is perennial and nowhere in the near future is this going to be rectified. Under such circumstances, not only is it very important to buy a good inverter battery, but it has become equally important to be well informed before even going to the market. The more you know about batteries and inverters the more secure you will be going into the market and be sure that your money will not be wasted down the drain.
Waves - The Big Deal
Electrical waves are of two types. All electrical appliances work on two sine waves. Cheap inverters are simply unable to produce smooth sine waves, for that costlier technology is necessary, which means you will have to pay up more compared to how much you will for a model that does only square waves.
It must be noted that computers, microwave ovens and most home electronics are not compatible with spiked square waves and if you force it, you will most certainly cause damage. If you are not certain which devices are susceptible, the rule of thumb is to think that all costly devices are! Bottom line - prefers a pure sine wave inverter and chooses the battery accordingly.
Car batteries just don't make the cut at all; the way these are made makes them incompatible and unfit for application in inverters. There is also one additional thing to consider here. Car batteries provide short jolts as is necessary to start an engine, unlike a steady supply of electrical energy that is necessary to run appliances. So, if you thought that your car battery would the trick, think again.
Why Branded Products Are Better Than Unbranded
Making inverter batteries is not child's play. Modern batteries are made after a lot of research and big brands put in a lot of money in making their batteries perfect, local companies on the other hand do their best but when it comes to costly electrical equipment you cannot trust anything less than well established brands for your inverter battery. Also, warranties and replacement is absolutely necessary because this equipment is good at developing faults, and only branded products come with proper warranties and guarantees.
Next time you are in the market make sure that you have the necessary information to choose the right information to pick a battery for your home.
