[QUOTE="Orcish75, post: 1135030, member: 21448"] Yup, most inverters do allow you to go over their rated capacity for a short time before they beep or shutdown. Some can handle double their rated capacity for a couple of seconds to handle switching on of inductive loads. Sometimes the lights flick briefly when I switch on my Rotel RB-985 power amp. It's a double whammy, the inductive load of the torroid as well as the large smoothing caps being charged as the unit is switched on. [/QUOTE]
