It suits off-grid, marine and vehicle installations where space is tight but reliable AC output still matters. A VE.Bus interface lets it talk to other Victron equipment for monitoring and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput\u003c\/strong\u003e, 1200VA continuous at 230V AC from a 12V DC battery bank.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaveform\u003c\/strong\u003e, pure sine wave, suitable for sensitive electronics and motor loads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommunication\u003c\/strong\u003e, VE.Bus port for integration with Victron Multi, Quattro and GX monitoring devices such as the Color Control GX.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e, 10.96 kg in a compact enclosure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtections\u003c\/strong\u003e, over-temperature, overload and low battery voltage shutdown built in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithin Victron's 12V range, the Compact 12\/1200 is a mid-capacity unit. At 1200VA it copes with lighting, small appliances, power tools and communication equipment, and the pure sine wave output means it isn't limited to resistive loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVE.Bus is what separates it from a basic inverter. It connects to Victron GX devices, giving remote monitoring through the VRM portal and a route into larger Victron system setups. That makes it a sensible pick where the installation might grow or needs centralised oversight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt just under 11 kg it's heavier than some inverters of similar output, reflecting the internal components and transformer used.

DC cable sizing and fusing between battery and inverter matter at this current draw, and the unit needs ventilation to avoid thermal shutdown. Any grid-connected or hybrid system must meet G98 or G99 requirements, confirmed with a qualified installer. Full VE.Bus monitoring needs compatible Victron GX hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52095400280352,"sku":"CIN122120000","price":337.04,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-cin122120000-1.webp?v=1785749090","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/victron-compact-inverter-12-1200","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
