Tripplite powerVerters
are technically MSW and are listed as such
BUT are specifically designed to run motors and actually have a modified sine wave
NOT a Square wave, mine has been running my fridge for over 5 years
they include heavy transformers and filtering
they are NOT $99 Choppers making square wave with lots of noise
I'd sure like to see a picture of their waveform. I've never found an MSW inverter that doesn't follow the 4-step (+v,zero,-v,zero) waveform with nothing else in-between. The only difference I've seen is that tripplite calls it "PWM sine wave". I'm not meaning to knock tripplite MSW inverters, they have good reviews. Without seeing a picture of the output it's hard for me to imagine what's different about them.
