Patent ID: 8120199

Claim:
A power inverter comprising: a housing having a front end, back end, and a body, said body positioned between and connected to said front end and said back end; said front end having a plug constructed and arranged for temporary coupling to a trailer hitch connector, said front end including electrical connectors for receipt of direct current (DC) electrical power from said trailer hitch connector; said back end having a receptacle including a three prong outlet constructed and arranged for temporary coupling to an alternating current (AC) powered device; and said body including an electrical power inverter, said electrical power inverter includes a transformer, a rectifier filter, and a PWM controller positioned therein, said electrical power inverter is electrically coupled to said plug and said three prong output, said transformer receives said DC electrical power from said input plug and transfers said DC electrical power to electrically coupled said rectifier filter, said rectifier filter converts said DC power supply to an AC power and is electrically coupled to said PWM controller, said PWM controller receives and adjusts said AC power to said three prong output.
