Mecer 2400VA not turning on

Featured Replies

Hi, 

 

I bought a Mecer 1440w inverter with 2x105ah batteries. 

 

I did the setup, but the inverter is not switching on at all, the screen stays off. I tested both batteries with a battery tester and was fine and was 24volt... 

 

I've tried decoupling the batteries and just run from the wall socket, but the inverter is still off/screen off. 

 

Any idea?

Be aware that 24.0 V is just about dead flat for a nominally 24 V battery. There is a significant load soon after turn-on which may be too much for a weak battery.

But it should light up the display, and show a fault code if something is wrong. So it sounds like this inverter is faulty.

There is a battery fuse inside, but these almost never blow.

These smaller models likely won't run without a battery. Some models don't even have a utility power supply.
