has anyone tested to see that the watt ratings are as advertised?

I have not hooked it up to tester but here something to consider only use the best rated fuel at the pump for octane like 91 or better temp plays a key on small engines and on this model altitude is mentioned like anything over 4500 feet it may have some issues I live at 6000 ft and do not have a problem except on low iddle with no load of power it does seem to need a little less choke or it sputters at times all in all I can put up with that so getting back to the watt question The unit must function at the rate under normal conditions sea live at or lower than 4500 feet and the best fuel just like motor cycles . Dometic is a old and trusted name and it would false advertising if it did not meet that specs as advertised. Just remember it is a wonderful little unit for the money and quiet. It is not ment to go at a Honda this is a niche that fills the gap between a 2000 watt unit and a 3000 thousand watt unit and it does a great job

Yes that is right. Because of the lumens it guves. Dont get confuse with watts..its the lumens equivalency.

Karen, I just looked mine over but found nothing referring to wattage. I do love mine though and will tell you that it is powerful.

If you got to pcpartpicker.com and input all of your components, it will tell you the approximate wattage

I do not see any indication of wattage in the Manual or online product description. Maybe try a call to the manufacturer.

On mine with 450watts it is showing about 22% usage, if linear them 1200 should show about @66%. I don't know if linear, personally I'd opt for a larger unit.

I have not measured it using a "actual usage" meter, but mine is a 65W and having researched it I remember other people reporting the very same thing. I am using this light for Aquarium purposes and so for me the actual wattage is not what is important...it is the actual lumens produced and the color in Kelvins that makes the difference. For my aquarium uses, I found this bulb to produce outstanding results.

I have NOT. However, it does have a screw on the front to switch it from 120w to 250w. I hope that helps.

You know...I looked on the item and I don't know if it is listed. I don't see the wattage listed in the manual. Is there a concern? I am just curious. Thank you.

Depends on the watts. I had a TV, the DVR, a fan and a lamp that had 5 bulbs. It was all good till I turned on all the bulbs then I could see the effect. I have had a small compressor plugging to it before and it did well.

I think the name plate watts are 800. Check the name plate one more time. think they are well within your usage

I just read the online user manual, and watts is one of the readings you can get. See pages 9 & 10.http://www.p3international.com/manuals/p4460_manual.pdf

I don't know but in the past, their numbers have corresponded to the optimal watts delivered. I'd try asking them again because my experiences with their customer service department is that they hire the mentally disabled. Their products are excellent but their customer service isn't.

There should be a UL label on the bottom of the machine which states its watts and/or amps. UL is a third party evaluation group that gives accurate information. Could someone who has one of these machines tell us what it says?

Sorry, I did not try it in that application, I would look at their website to determine what the max wattage is to ensure you are not exceeding that

It only shows runtime, load capacity and voltage. For watts you should look into a kill-a-watt device like this one: http://www.amazon.com/P3-P4400-Electricity-Usage-Monitor/dp/B00009MDBU I have one of those and it works great. Plug it in before the unit, then plug the unit into it and you will have the watt display of the whole ups.
