A mechanical 12v DC-> 120v AC inverter. (Read 35 times)

1st2know Senior Member Offline Currently between Savages Posts: 295 Seattle, WA Gender:	A mechanical 12v DC-> 120v AC inverter. 08/05/17 at 14:31:10 An interesting hack using a relay to buck a 12v DC circuit, then he steps it up with a 1:10 transformer to 120vac. https://youtu.be/Ik5QXGqzg5M Probably more of a toy(ca. 3 watts) than a useful inverter, but still interesting. It sort of reminds me of breaker points, but without the distributor cam.
