Invertor size for a refrigerator
I have a refrigerator rated at 6.5 amps max. Would a 1000 watt pure sine inverter be sufficient? Nothing else would be on the circuit.

our fridge only needs 100w to run, but pulls 900w to start the compressor,
our inverter is 1250w continuous, 1875 for 30 minutes, 2500w for 10 seconds
we need more info about the fridge, make, model#, size
look at the compressor, get the listed LRA amps, from the data plate
LRA is Locked Rotor Amps, the inverter must be able to deliver the LRA for what ever seconds is needed to get the compressor running
