Inverter socket

[Pure Worktop Protection]

just trying to work out what to plug into the inverter socket. Not enough power to run a toaster as 150 watt max, iPads and phones go into USB socket - so what does everyone use it for.
Also appreciate advice on where to get an adaptor for it to make it useable once I find a use for it!

Lots of threads on the inverter.

This one for starters

Personally it's an option for the mac and plug in mosquito repellent.

Thanks Mike

Was wrong on using for my Mac. Hadn't done it yet. I have a USB converter for the inverter but actually have a 12 volt adapter for the Mac. Another thread made me have a look instead of relying on my memory.

My three pin Bose connector runs off the inverter via an adaptor bought from the club shop. I did try running my conventional 240V Mac charger off it but it didn't like it so now use a 12v charger. Other than my Bose I am all 12v on low wattage items.

Some Mains Chargers do not like the Wave form from the Inverter and so will not work. Apple chargers are very picky.

I thought a wave form was something you got from a hair dryer

Unfortunately no.
