Rated for 250VA continuous output, it suits small off-grid and mobile setups where a clean AC supply is needed from a 12V battery bank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput power\u003c\/strong\u003e, 250VA continuous from a 12V DC input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAC output\u003c\/strong\u003e, 230V, suitable for UK and European appliances via a UK plug socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaveform\u003c\/strong\u003e, pure sine wave, compatible with sensitive electronics and motor loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMonitoring\u003c\/strong\u003e, VE.Direct port for connection to Victron GX devices and the VictronConnect app\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtection\u003c\/strong\u003e, over-temperature, low battery voltage, overload and short circuit protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e, 2.6kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis sits at the compact end of Victron's inverter range, suited to small loads such as lighting, phone chargers, laptops or low-wattage tools run directly from a 12V battery. The pure sine wave output means it will run appliances with switch-mode power supplies without issue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVE.Direct is Victron's point-to-point communication protocol. It allows connection to a Victron Color Control GX, Cerbo GX, or a PC running VictronConnect via a VE.Direct to USB cable, giving access to real-time data and basic configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDC wiring between battery and inverter must be correctly rated for the input current at 12V, which will be higher than the AC output current, and protected with a suitably rated fuse or breaker close to the battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsed in campervans and motorhomes drawing 230V AC from a 12V leisure battery, narrowboats and small marine vessels, off-grid cabins and garden buildings, and remote monitoring or telecoms setups needing a clean sine wave supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOperating at 12V DC, this inverter is not grid-connected, so G98\/G99 compliance does not apply. DC cabling must be correctly sized and fused near the battery, and installation should be carried out by someone familiar with 12V DC and low-voltage AC wiring. Allow adequate ventilation to avoid thermal shutdown under sustained load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eVictron Inverter 12\/250 230V VE.Direct UK unit\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52095394480416,"sku":"PIN121251400","price":66.66,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-pin121251400-1.webp?v=1785748330","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/victron-12-250-inverter-ve-direct","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
