Looking for a 12V 1000W inverter that can pull a small fridge and Tv for the duration of loadshedding (around 4 hours).

Have looked the mecer 1200VA MPPT version that can accept lithium batteries as well as the axpert 1.2kW.

Any experience or recommendations regarding a fairly inexpensive solution that is still reliable

The 1200VA Mecer should work but is very noisy. 

Also be careful as the brick  type China inverters quote the size as the peak value and not the full time Watts. You need a 1000W full time unit. 

I assisted a friend on Friday and his 1000W would not start his fridge but my 1500W worked fine.

The mecer i am looking at has the following specs: like i mentioned it should only be able to power a tv,one light and small hisense fridge. I dont think the fridge will pull to much power seeing that it will already be cool when loadshedding hit,only need to contain the temperature
