Another current CostCo item is a 1000/2000 watt inverter from Xantrex:

$69. I didn't pick one up today, but after a quick wandering of the 'net for price/performance reassurance, I will tomorrow!

 

$69? Or was it $169? I have a 800/1100W inverter that I paid $39 for. Either way, that is a great deal.

 

Nope, Sixty Nine - I looked at it a couple of times as well but decided to wait until I found out a bit more info on the mfg and model.

 

An update...

The power inverter at CostCo isn't from Vector, it's this one:

http://www.xantrex.com/products/product.asp?did=601

The specs are very much the same... 1000 watt continuous, 2000 watt surge. Thermal, overload, and over/under voltage protection. 90% efficient, no-load draw of < 300ma.

I have it at home now, and I'm VERY happy.

 

Good find Mark!

I paid $39 for a 400/800 from Coleman. I does what I need it to do.

Later!
