get the LRA off the tag on the compressor
you CAN NOT go by any reading on a clamp on meter or even a Kill-A-watt
they are not capable of reading the LRA spike, the response aka sampling time of those meters is not fast enough
also should be noted, the avg consumer inverter has a very short surge time rating like 5 Micro-seconds
my Trip-lite commercial grade 1250w weights 22pounds
most of that weight is the heavy transformer inside
