This compressor can be used with a power converter 12 DC? grateful Valdomiro

Valdomiro, any electric devise - including this compressor - can be plugged into an DC to AC inverter. It depends on the output power rating of the inverter. Electric motors have inrush current which means at the initial start of the motor the ampere draw is higher than when the motor is operating at steady state. This compressor's steady state amp draw is 2.6 or 325 watts @ 125 volts. Be sure the inverter is motor rated.

Yes you can use a converter 12 v.I have a bank of batteries and a converter 12 v., 1200 wat and works perfectly. Consumes about 300 wat

I would say "yes", Sandra; 110VAC to 12VDC/5A is standard for portable coolers. Mine works great, I use it everyday! (on the convertor in my office) It actually cools better on the AC adapter than when I've used it of the 12VDC from the car. Hope this helps! :)

Yes, it can be powered by 12vdc. I power mine with two 9 volt batteries connected in series. It works quite well.

Had one myself, but it was junk. I was refunded for it. Went with another I found online. Just the way with Chinese items. Sorry I can only say is yes you can use 12vdc to chg. Take care, Jim WA2FAA

The short answers are- No, and no. The surge amps to start a compressor are pretty high, and I doubt that this inverter would even put out enough power to start it. And you do need to buy cables to hook up to your battery, or battery bank. I would keep looking if I were you.

You can only use this portable air compressor when you plug it into the 12 volt outlet of the automobile's accessory outlet (formaly the cigarette lighter outlet).

This unit is DC powered, so I'm assuming you are referring to a DC powered system where you are wiring directly to a 12V DC power source... try it!

I've used mine on job sites but you need a dedicated 29 Amp circuit for it.If your converting power and need an inverter I'd try to find a compressor that dies not draw so many amps cayse it will take quite a bit of start up amps from your power source

The system work with 12 Vd.c. only if you want you can buy a converter or adaptor but you need 12 Vdc in output, not work with usb power

Look at the watts your compressor consumes. It must be 1500 or less watt. This inverter only achieves 110-120 volts.It doesn´t work with appliances more than that. You need DC cables to conect to the battery.

No, it is 12V DC only. You could buy a separate power convertor if you really need 110V AC.

Not for sure the amp capacity of the switch or your compressor, otherwise it will work

Yes as long as you don't exceed the controllers maximum current output. This unit at 12vdc draws 560milliamps

You can use it with a battery (deep cycle) connected between it and your 12 volt tools. The convertor keeps your battery "topped" off as your tools draw power from it.

I was using this to control a cooling fan on a fifth wheel refrigerator. Had no problems with using it on 12VDC.

They are the same compressor. What I was sorry for, and I want you to be aware of that it is a 12 volt system and is not 110 volts. The info did not state this whey I purchased it, and I was shocked to find that it was not really what I wanted. However, I did find a place for it at our shore home. It blows up toys etc.

As long as the converter drops the current to 12vdc it will work fine. The wires are about 2 feet long.
