You can use the numbers displayed
example, if you have a light plugged in that is pul •ng IOOW, you can
estimate the YETI 400 will run the light for about 4 hours (YETI Wh/Device
W = runtime in hours; 400/100=
WATT HOURS (Wh) and AMP HOURS (Ah) represent the amount of power

What does a pure-sine
When it comes to power, you might have heard the etters DC and AC
thrown around DC stands for Direct Current, and is the only type of power
that can be stored in a battery

inverter is required to change DC output to AC output and requires a small
amount of power for the change
