Hi,
Maybe, the way to figure that would be the 20 amp draw of the unit times the 120 volts that the unit runs on which gives you a wattage of like 2400 watts...that is really very close to the max output of the inverter and it may cause it to over heat...

I have a samsung smart tv .. I was watchimg a movie and outnowhere my screen when all black its has oudio but i can see anything .. :/ wat can i do

Back-light problem. Check and replace damaged component/s at its back-light inverter board, or replace this board as card basis. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts. It will be best to replace the inverter board as card basis.

WILL A TRACE 2000 WAT INVERTER RUN A RV 15000 BTU AIR CONDITIONER

It can but you are not going to do it off a single deep cycle battery, You will need to have some robust batteries to sustain it. But that will almost need to be the only thing on that inverter.

It might be better to spend a little more and get the Air conditioner that can operate on 12 volts or 120 with the flip of a switch.

Look at the data panel for the 15,000 BTU AC. It's current rating should be right around 12 Amps at 120VAC. Which is 1440 Watts. Startup is when there could be a problem. Especially when the compressor approaches a near lockup condition. Current draw can be double that of normal operation Even though it is within the surge rating of the inverter- the batteries have to be at their peak at all times.

Microwave wont run with a 1500 watt inverter why

Depending on the model of the microwave it could draw more wattage than what is put out by the inverter. Don't forget there is a inital spike when your unit first starts and that although an inverter might be listed at 1500 wat that is the maximum and will depend on how much power the inverter is getting in, so if the engine is not putting out enough power the inverter will not put out a full 1500.

Lcd television has sound but no picture wat could be the problem in the circuitry.is it the lcd

hi,
. Is there is any light in the screen. If not, then Backlight inverter is faulty. All lcd tv have backlight to light the pixels. If you watch the screen very near then you will be able to see image on the screen. First of all check is there is any budged capacitors in the power supply. If there then replace it will solve the problem. If no then check the inverter board. Do on thing check the fuse in the inverter board. If the fuse is faulty then replace it. If the fuse blews again then the inverter board is short you have to replace invereter baord. It is not possible to repair the backlight inverter. You have to replace the board with a new one.Have added the picture of inverter board and budge capacitor for your reference. If you need any more assistance feel free to contact me by Fixya

Hi. I have a 5000 watt inverter in my truck. The alternator in the truck is a 150? amp alternator. I also have 3 deep cycle batteries (about 150 ah each) to run the inverter. Is this overkill for my...

A 5000 wat inverter is very large. Your alternator could not supply it alone without the batteries. The moderate to low usage is the key. Calculate the wattage of the load you want to connect. Depending on what else you're doing with the truck, lights, heater, air condition etc, you could probably draw somewhere between 1,0000-1500 watts on that alternator. Rember even if your alternator is rated for 150amps (large alt) it is not a 100% duty cycle. Alternators are usually around 50% duty cycle, so figure about 75amps continuous, or around 900 watts. That's considerably less than your 5,000 watt inverter. Buy a generator.

Screen slightly flickers

Probably the inverter board of your monitor has been exhausted. The inverter is the part that enables the monitor to glow, making a little fluorescent gas lamp insithe the LCD bright strong enough to illuminate all the panel. When this circuit has some disfunction the lamp could oscilate, ficker and finally die making the panel dark and you couldn read what's on the screen.

The inverter has a lifetime, and the lamp too, check the lamp lifetime of your monitor and the inverter too.

But this could only be performed to a qualified person, due the high probability of electric shock if you try to make yoursel the repair.

Good luck
