Simple 12V to 120V Inverter Circuit Diagram

This is the Simple 12V to 120V Inverter Circuit Diagram. This Simple 12V to 120V Inverter Circuit Diagram should solve that problem. It takes 12 VDC and steps it up to 120 VAC. The wattage depends on which tansistors you use for Q1 and Q2, as well as how "big" a transformer you use for T1. The inverter can be constructed to supply anywhere from 1 to 1000 (1 KW) watts.
