I'm looking at the Prowatt SW600 inverter and they are calling it "True Sine-Wave!" Is this a buzz term or does anyone know is this inverter actually pure sine wave because the price is only 167.00 at BestInverters which makes me think it is a MSW...??!

Well, I bought that inverter from the same source...Yes it is a true-sinewave inverter.I also bought the wired remote and relay. I hard wired it into one of the 120V circuits.

Trace makes pretty good products. I would say it is good.Fred.

OK that's awesome then... Thanks for the responses!I know there are some that no longer believe in Xantrex since they are now built in China or so I am told but lots of people use them & you can't beat that price with a stick!!!

$167 is a very steep price for a MSW inverter of only 600 watts. I'd expect to pay no more than, oh, maybe $50 for an MSW unit that size.

Bestconverter.com has them for $167... I think that it's a good price and it is PSW.And I have done a bunch of business with Randy... always felt good with everything I did with themA Samlex SSW 1500 Watt PSW is only $325The prices seem to have come down

Where is the THD spec?

Go Power is less than 3%. Lower cost is closer to 5%. Still sine wave.

The SW600 IS a PSW (pure, true, whatever sine wave) inverter.

I'll go with the Sleepy Man on this one! I've been pricing now every day and doing lots of comparisons and that is a great deal in my view..
