Description

Victron Phoenix Inverter 12/1200 NEMA 5-15R: 1,200VA = 1,000 watts continuous

A 12V pure sine wave inverter from Victron Energy with 120V AC output.

Why the VA number isn't the watts: Victron rates its inverters in VA (volt-amps). This one delivers 1,000W continuous at 77°F (25°C) and 2,200W peak for motor and compressor start-up. Size your loads around 1,000W, not 1,200W. Compare all Victron inverters →

What it will run on a boat

At 1,000W it handles a coffee maker or a small microwave, plus electronics. Check the appliance's input watts: a "700W" microwave usually draws 1,000–1,200W from the outlet. Add up everything you'll run at the same time and leave 20–25% headroom.

Battery draw and wiring

At full continuous output it pulls roughly 92 amps from a 12V battery bank (1,000W ÷ 12V ÷ 91% efficiency). Size the battery cables, DC fuse and battery bank for that current. The manual lists Victron's recommended cable and fuse sizes for this model.

Mounting it in a hot engine room?

Continuous output drops as the temperature rises: 850W at 104°F (40°C). In the Keys an engine room or lazarette can easily run hotter than 104°F, so size for the hottest spot you'll mount it and give it airflow.

Idle draw at anchor

Switched on with nothing plugged in, it uses about 10W, roughly 20Ah per day from a 12V bank. Turn on 1 W in ECO mode to cut that down when you're off the dock.
