The offset handle is to keep the battery from falling off. The new ego 400 watt is now pure sine wave.i have all 3 of these and the milwaukee is awsome! The 400 watt ego is definitely better.
I was trying to read the Milwaukee packaging on the 120v outlet to see the max amps allowed. From watching video further on I see that you mentioned the trip light so, I assume that will determine the max amp draw. I don't have an inverter for my batteries as I have one installed in my vehicle and use it when needed. Though for camping I can see the benefit of having one around specially if I cannot get to my truck. Thank you for the review👍. Kudos from NYC🗽.
Yeah about 1.5 is a fair number based on the watts spec. Most inverters also have a peak/initial watts spec too though for when you turn something on initially.
@@projectpinehills Not quite. Inverters are rated for peak and continuous watts, not amps. Watts are watts and will not change no matter what the volts or amps are on the input vs output side of the inverter, while amps and volts will vary greatly. I don't know what is the peak watt rating for this mini inverter.
That cool but if build your power banks do much better this what i did i have few milwaukee lithium battery 1 12A,2 5A and 1 3A Lithium battery with 800 watts inverter 60Hz 8A 12Volt 110AC outlet with 36,48,60,72V DC converter to 12V 10A out put with 3 usb port 5 switch in tool box and volt meter lol i do much better on it more buying that
The original ego nexus 150 really wasn’t very good, new one is much better! Out of all 3 i use the milwaukee top off every night to charge my phone because of the size, i love it.

Yeah I like the form factor if the top off. 400 is great for extended use or powering a fridge. Thanks for watching!

Good question on the amps because Milwaukee does not publish it. Only way to know is to test with amp meter to be sure. Thanks for watching!
1.46A (watts = volts x amps, so amps = watts / volts. 175 / 120 = 1.46)

Great video the top off is amazing tool I own two of them
Thanks for watching! 👍
Excellent, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
For how long will keep my MacBook laptop running?
Depends on the Milwaukee battery size that you use with the Top-Off. Thanks for watching!
What do you recommend?
The ego nexus 400 has a 100 watt usb c
Can you plug in the m18 charger on it?
No you can’t. Charger draws to many maps. Thanks for watching!

How do those batteries connect to the inverter?
i have a Converter that can do 36V,48V,60V72V IN OUT 12VOLT 10A
WHEN I FINISH DO EVERY THING I SEND LINK I HAVE MY POWER STATION THAT I CAN RUN LITHIUM OR LEAD ACID BATTERY 12V OR 12V LITHIUM OR 18V ETC

Thanks for the feedback! I agree it’s the handiest!
I would not connected it to a tv. The sine wave is not that great.
Yeah not a pure sign wave. Thanks for watching!
Wouldn't run a toaster for me
That’s right, toasters pull a fair amount of amps. It’s not made for that. You’ll have to settle for bread until the power is back on.
Anything that produces heat needs a lot of juice
@johnnydrama8709 that’s right! 👍
