Trip lite makes some pure sine wave inverters
They are big heavy and have transformers,. Just like the MSW versions
The also have surge ratings in SECONDS not micro SECONDS
IIRC my pv 1250 will carry 2500 watts for 10 seconds
1875 watts for 60 minutes

Tripplite, a well known NAME in the inverter business but yet a real undervalued builder. The problem is they cost more than $29 and folks tend to migrate to the PRICE rather than buying something made by a long term maker. Tripplite WILL be around when the cheapo imported brands have disappeared in a year or so.
Tripplite MSW inverters are far better than any cheapo Chinese imported PSW but you simply can not get folks to understand that. I would bet that Tripplites PSWs would be a real fine choice although will cost considerably more than the cheapo Chinese PSWs.
Quality is king and COSTS more to manufacture due to better engineering and even higher internal parts count.
