Compatibility between your inverter and a 12v 200ah lithium battery relies on the main things: the inverter’s input voltage, its output power level, and the type of inverter.
Input voltage: 12V is the magic number
As you're using a 12v battery from SM Solar, you'll need an inverter that accepts a 12v. It's common, and you'll see that most inverters made for cars, RVs, or solar power will work with a 12v. Look carefully at the details to be sure, but you should not bother finding a matching one.
Types of inverters: pure sine wave vs. modified sine wave
For solar usage, inverters are available in two main kinds. The key difference with inverters for a 200Ah Lithium Battery is the quality of the power they make.
· Sine wave inverters: Such devices offer a smooth and steady current, much like the power from the main electricity grid. To get your appliances to work well and last a long time, a pure sine wave inverter is the best choice.
· Modified sine wave inverters: The shape of the power wave is not as smooth as others. This roughness can bring problems with devices that need higher quality power, possibly leading to overheating or not working so well.
Sizing your inverter: don’t forget the surge
When you are selecting an inverter for solar usage, remember also to think about the surge rating. A lot of machines, such as refrigerators or water pumps, need more power at the beginning (to start up). Please ensure your inverter and 12v 200Ah Battery can bear these spikes, which usually range from double to triple the constant power capacity.
