When a microwave or coffee maker would trip a weak hookup, this unit adds battery support through PowerAssist to carry the load. With 1,600 watts continuous output and an 80 amp charger, it keeps loads running and batteries recovering.
When a microwave or coffee maker pushes a 15 amp hookup, 30 amp hookup, or small generator too hard, this unit steps in with PowerAssist and PowerControl to prevent generator or shore power overload and boost available AC power using battery energy during peak demand. It pairs that load support with 1,600 watts of continuous output power at 77ºF and a 50 amp transfer switch. In real use, that gives you more room to run real household loads when incoming AC power is the bottleneck.
Short power interruptions can reset a residential refrigerator or knock sensitive electronics offline right when shore power or generator input changes. This inverter switches to inverter operation in under 20 milliseconds with UPS functionality to keep sensitive electronics running. The practical payoff is that connected loads stay powered through the handoff instead of shutting down during the switch.
Running larger AC loads drains a 12V battery bank fast, and slow charging stretches out recovery time between use cycles. This unit uses 4-stage adaptive battery charging with 80 amps for the house battery, plus a dedicated 1 amp trickle charge output for a starter battery. In practice, that gives you one charger recovering the main battery bank while also maintaining the starter side.
Battery runtime disappears quickly when the inverter stays on all day waiting for only occasional loads. This unit uses search mode operation that reduces inverter power consumption by approximately 70 percent during low or no load conditions, and its zero load power is rated at 10 watts. In real off-grid use, that reduces wasted battery draw between actual appliance runs.
A lot of inverter chargers in this size range top out as one-box installs that need full replacement once power demands grow. This unit supports parallel, split-phase, and 3-phase operation with up to 6 units, and it also supports remote monitoring and configuration when paired with a GX device (sold separately) through the VRM portal. That gives you a 12V starting point that can grow into a larger monitored system instead of forcing a complete restart later.

Hi, everyone, Steve here with etrailer. Today we're taking a look at the Victron MultiPlus Pure Sine Wave Inverter Charger, rated at 2000-watts, 50-amps, and it runs on 12-volts. So, folks, today, again, we are taking a look at this, it's a powerful wall all-in-one inverter/charger, and it's again designed to bring reliable AC power to your 12-volt battery system. Now I've got it laying down the table, but you would use the included bracket and hardware, and it would be hanging on a wall most likely, and it would be in the upright position. Now, I did beforehand go to remove two simple screws, so you can get a better look at the inside here. And now you can see all your different connections, positive, ground, et cetera.
And if you don't know, you can pop these out to run your wires and stuff through there to make it a nice, clean connection. Now, again, this runs up to or delivers 2000-volt ampers of continuous pure sine wave power, that's gonna mean clean, stable energy, electricity, to run those appliances, tools, and those sensitive electronics; so, just like you would in your house, whether it's laptops, televisions, whatnot. And then when you're connected to shore power, or a generator maybe, the MultiPlus is gonna automatically switch over to the built-in battery charger, and then it's gonna deliver strong, adaptive multi-stage charging, excuse me, to keep those batteries healthy whenever everything is ready, and to keep everything healthy and ready to go. Now one of the standout features that I like about this is that it has what's called a PowerAssist, and that's gonna prevent overload by supplementing incoming AC power with energy from your batteries. And while I'm talking, I'll go ahead and tilt you to the back.
So, again, it's gonna be hanging right here on this bracket, it's gonna marry up with that bracket when it's hanging, when you have it installed. But back to that PowerAssist, so again, it's gonna prevent overload by supplementing that incoming power with energy from your batteries, and that's gonna be perfect when you're in one of those high-end high-demand loads, and you may be on limited shore generator power. And if the power goes out, no need to worry, this will automatically switch to Inverter mode in milliseconds, acting like a UPS system, to keep those critical devices running without interruption. And, of course, it has an automatic transfer switch as well built into it, so it's gonna give you seamless system integration with all other Victron components, and it supports, so you can monitor through your GX devices and the VRM platform. Helps if I put it the right way.
There we go. Okay, and then like I said, there's two screws, one that would go on each side that held those in place, and like I said, I removed that. So again, folks, whether you're setting up an RV, off-grid cabin, backup power system, or whatnot, this is a great reliable balance of power option for you with built in smart charging and very flexible all in a compact unit. As far as dimensions, it's 19 and 15/16 inches tall, again, whenever it's standing upright, nine and 5/16s wide, and approximately five and 13/16 inches deep. As always, if you have further questions about this or any of the products we carry, reach out to us here at etrailer, we'd love to answer anything we can to help you when we can.
I'm Steven, have a good one.
