I agree it would be good to know how he's got it hooked up. But on
the other hand, while it's *rated* at 1000W, the motor he's trying to run
is more like 120W. The inverter would have to pull maybe 12 amps to
support it, so if he has it wired in to something capable of supporting
even 12 amps or so, it should still work.

One of the inverter reviews, a guy was disappointed, thought he could
just plug it into his cigarette lighter in the dash. The items comes
with no wires or cables it seems.

Derby, how it wired in. (I have no solutions on wiring as I've been
known to make smoke)

I tried 2 different sources: One of those 12V "jump start" power packs and
the 12V accessory port in my van. In both cases I used a 12V extension
cord, probably 16g. Obviously not the right wire for this application.

If it's going to require those huge wire "starter motor" wires and end up
as permanent installation, then this device is not what I want.
