Traditional inverters gather power from all or most of the panels in an installation and use transformers, capacitors and switches to change it from directcurrenttoalternatingcurrent.
Their job is to convert high-voltage alternatingcurrent from the mains into low-voltage directcurrent for mobile phones, laptops, iPods and other electronic gadgets.
Since 2005, the company has stood out in the fast-moving LED industry with an innovation that allows LEDs to be powered by alternatingcurrent, or AC, rather than requiring a transformer that turns AC into directcurrent.
