What use does this perform. Also is it needed for the regular operation of the converter.

It is not needed for the regular operation of converter but it can put the converter in manual mode to select each function. It also lets you know what function or setting the converter is in on auto mode.

it converts DC voltage like from a 12v car battery into 120 VAC for use with items that run on household voltage. Mine did not last very long though!

Yes, it can be used for this purpose, but its only outlet is for a cigarette-lighter adapter. So you'll need one of those to plug your appliance into.

Do NOT USE THIS converter: Several Amazon users have already reported it has burned up, and two of the three I have purchased have burned up under normal use and low currents. It is UNSAFE in ANY country at ANY frequency and voltage.

Hello, please look at all of the negative comments on the site: the converter dies out after some time. Mine died after 2 weeks but some on the site mention much shorter times.

The inverter is used to convert the DC voltage to AC,this Gen. gives clean AC, that is better for your PC and other devices,the Carb. compliant ,is for Calf.

Derrick, I'm not sure there is a 100% accurate answer to this. I imagine there are some places where you would not need one, and others where you will. I would recommend picking up a power converter, and if you need it great if not, you have it just in case. Sorry that's probably not the answer you were looking for.

My impression is that NO, this is a power source. It is used when one has a DC powered appliance and wants to use the appliance with AC power.

Depends on the power requirements of the device. As long as it doesn't surpass max watts capacity of the converter, you are good to use it.

No...the converter has to be wired in through a toggle switch or by an in line fusible link. If I remember correctly, the converter has power all the time and my toggle switch turns the radio on.

I dont think it does. This is very susceptible to interference. And a converter doesn't seem like a good idea.

There are reviews as well as forums on this converter that are worth a careful read. It works for me.

I bought the unit for my son's recreational vehicle. We installed it in lessv than 1hour. There was no need for the converter.

No. It is a good inverter though. Some inexpensive inverters will use a lot of energy even if they have no load on them. This one doesn't. Very important when running something that cycles on and off like a refrigerator.

This is 110V version....so yes you need either a passive or active converter

Correct. Converter is for converting stop and turn lights only. Works perfect.
