Hi, would it work with my 5 amp vacuum cleaner ?

It should according to the laws of electricity . The real only true test is to try it , but make the vacuum cleaner do some work not just turn it on .

900 watts = 120 volts x 7.5 amps so yes. However in basic theory because a vacuum cleaner has a motor it probably will want to draw more amps than 7.5 amps at startup. Remember it will also have to be directly connected to the battery. Personally I would go with at least a 1100 watt converter, but I am talking theory here and I have not done what you are asking (used a 5am vacuum cleaner with mine).

The rule of thumb for motors is they will draw 3 to 6 times their nameplate current (depending on load). A vaccuum has no real starting load (much like a fan) so 3 times is typical. This in-rush current is short lived (mili-sesconds). It is very likley that a 5 amp motor will not overload the 900W inverter with 1800 watt peak. The only way to truly know is to test it.

it should as a 5 amp 120volt vacuum pulls 600 watts. the start up might trip the breaker on the inverter though.

This and most inverters are never rated for motor's. The inrush amp's needed exceed the name plate rating of the motor, usually double. If you want to run a motor, like a dremal or vacuum cleaner you really need to buy a rotary inverter.

yes it would work, however it's not very good. It is hard to keep together the vacuum. It keeps falling apart. Cheaply made.

I'm not an electrical engineer, but it says on the box that it's rated for 7.5A, 12V, 90W. But, if your vacuum has that exact same rating, I think the vacuum would cut out a lot due to surges and variations in current draw. There would be no margin for error.

A 1/4 or 3/8 drill or screw driver should be no problem. An industrial strength 1/2 drill or 3/4 HP drill press would probably be too much. With a vacuum cleaner it would depend on the size and horsepower. This is a 1000 watt generator--about 8 amps of power. any motor that draws more than 8 amps starting current would be too much load.

I don't know, but if I were you I wouldn't waste my money on it. I bought it to go with my vacuum, but I didn't think it worked worth a darn and don't use it.

I had a fantom fury, and it fit, not sure what amp, have since gotten a new vacuum

I don't know that model of vacuum cleaner. I will give you this hose, it won't work for my vacuum. My email is wright.meredith@gmail.com

HiThe unit uses suction to power but I think an older vacuum may not have enough force t spin the brush rotorAs for fit you should measure your connector and check with the mfg info on fitment

Yes, we have been using a Japanese vacuum cleaner with this converter, but it stopped working after two years. Be sure to check vacuum manual. If it uses more than a third of the converter

I do not think it will, I can run one of my home floor vacuum s with it but not my other vacuum with separately because the amps are to hi

Based on how well it worked with the fan motor... I'd say no! This isn't a scientific response but rather what I observed with the fan motor. The controller simply isn't very precision and I think it has wide swings in voltage... in other words you couldn't fine tune it. I think it would very quickly smoke the motor in the vacuum. Again this is simply my observations on how it performed with my electric fan motor which was pretty small and didn't draw many amps.....

You have a central vacuum system, as your number indicates, therefore I doubt it will work. However my research was limited.

This hose is not the one in the picture. the one you get has the sure lock connector to the vacuum cleaner if your vacuum cleaner uses the sure lock system it may work. what is pictured is the friction connector system. (just pushes in not having a locking button)

The vacuum uses ~4 amps (according to specs). At that rating, literally any 3-prong extension cord will work. I'd suggest going to the hardware or big box store and just compare the cords they have in your desired length for the lightest. Or compare shipping weights on amazon for cords of your desired length and pray.

I would like to tell you yes, but I can't. If your vacuum has a 1 inch diameter port, it should work fine.

Yes, this should work. It is white or light gray but my vacuum is blue. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure how many amps this uses, but I can tell you that this is a powerful vac. More power then my Dyson. I love it.
