Q. Will an inverter damage my car?

Answer

There are several urban legends on the web claiming that inverters pose a threat to the safety or that they would fast drain the car's battery if someone utilizes one. Inverters may seem dangerous at first, but when used correctly, they pose no risk to the user. Using a power inverter will drain the car's battery. A user of a power inverter in a car must ensure adequate ventilation and storage space. Overheating is a common problem with inverters, although most models have automatic fans to keep them cool, albeit at a cost of more energy.
