My boyfriend just purchased this inverter, for the second time for fear the old one wasn't going to work anymore. Using it for a television. We tried both inverters and no lights are showing when plugged into outlet but works when directly plugged to car battery. Didn't read/can't find directions, does this inverter need to be charged first and if so, how??
You are sure the light tube is working ?
If you connected the inverter to a care battery and it worked,it means at first you did not connect it to a battery.NB the inverter must be connected to a battery before it works so get a battery connect it to the inverter with the right terminal i.e the red to red or {+ ve}, the black to back or {-ve} ,if you car battery is a 12volts batery get another one like it for you inverter, but remember that your inverter needs to be pluged to a power source for you to be able to charge your batteries
Inverters works from 12v carr battery or backup battery, you can not charge the inverter you msay killed your inverter if you connected to 120v wall mount...you use the inverter to give you AC (electric) from 12v battery. if your tv is 12v you need to know how much needed to get the correct connrection as output and input.
