My question is why did they only include the tv's on the converter? Seems like you could run a small coffee pot with a 1000 watt converter???
I agree and asked the same question when I was at Host. The answer was to provide ample power if customer also wants to run sat dish, DVR, or anything else from that receptacle. The inverter is wired to a duplex outlet next to the TV so you could plug whatever you want into the other outlet. In addition there is a second empty receptacle on the inverter itself so you could run additional power line from the inverter to where ever you want. I was thinking about setting up a 110 plug to run smaller appliances outside.
We are running a 2800 watt whole house wired inverter. The smaller inverter is nice if you don't need that much, but you are correct for the TV a 300 watt inverter would have been ample.
And yes you can run a small coffee pot. Our Keurig only peaks at 600 watts.
