Sentera PHX - Recommendations for Power Inverter to Charge PHX Batteries
FAQ: Can the PHX battery charge from the cigarette lighter in my vehicle?
Charging through a cigarette lighter will not provide the wattage required to charge a PHX battery in most cases. We recommend, at minimum, 300-watt pure sine inverter that can be connected directly to the car battery terminals.
Keep in mind if you want to charge one PHX battery at a time, the 300 Watt will
be sufficient. If you intend to run two chargers, you will need the 500 watt AND
hook directly to the car battery.
Note: Most retailers do not carry sine wave technology inverters, so it is suggested to purchase from Amazon.
Sentera recommends this from 300 watt from Amazon, BESTEK 300 Watt Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter: https://www.amazon.com/BESTEK-300Watt-Inverter-Converter-Charging/dp/B082PN7C6J/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=pure+sine+300+watt+inverter&qid=1619445668&s=electronics&sr=1-4,
To run two chargers, purchase the 500-watt adapter and connect directly to the car battery terminals. Purchase from Amazon, BESTEK 500 Watt Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B082MDRC64/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
