AIMS Power Inverters and the Man Behind the Business, Bruce de Jong

AIMS Power inverters celebrates 12 years of business in 2013. To celebrate, the president & founder, Bruce de Jong, tells the company’s story.

Reno, Nevada (PRWEB) September 22, 2013

AIMS Power inverters were born from one man’s garage, one man’s sanctuary in Reno, Nevada.

“That’s where I built the foundation of the business,” company founder and president Bruce de Jong said. “But it became apparent that shipping truckloads out of my garage wasn’t exactly appreciated by the neighbors.”

de Jong utilized the resource for about a year starting in February 2001, dedicating late nights developing inverter designs and researching renewable energy markets, waking up at sunrise to land deals and ship them the same day — all from the limited space normally meant for parking his car.

Part of his motivation came from the prospect of building a family, as he married his now wife of 12 years, Laura de Jong, that same year. Part of it came from the desire to do business better than the “horrible bosses” he had in the past, but most of it came from the simple desire for more freedom and security in life.

With a college degree and more than a handful of business experience under his belt, an inspired de Jong led the way in developing the most extensive line of inverters available on the market today, boasting 52 different models to meet customers’ varying needs.

Inverters by AIMS power off-grid cabins

10000 watt power inverter model by AIMS Power is perfect for off-grid cabin applications.

AIMS Power is dedicated to providing the best products possible to its customers, which is why this new version of the 10000 watt 12 volt inverter was developed. It’s less than half the size and weight of any other model you can find on the market — guaranteed (more specs below). So packing it up and taking it out to an off-grid cabin or using it for any other mobile application is easier than ever.

AIMS Power's new 10000 watt 12 volt inverter is less than half the size of the competition's, making for more flexibility in mobile and off-grid applications.

AIMS Power’s new 10000 watt 12 volt inverter transforms direct current (DC) electricity generated by batteries into alternating current (AC) electricity used to power lights, TVs, vacuums, coffee pots, air conditioners and many other appliances needed to feel cozy in an off-grid cabin.

The inverter’s 10000 watt continuous output combined with its 20000 watt surge capacity means that this AIMS Power product can handle the high wattage startup for air conditioners and air compressors. These products use what’s called locked rotor startup or locked rotor amperage (LRA) which means when starting they require about three to five times their regular wattage.

Even if not using anything that requires LRA, the high wattage capacity on this inverter means that more appliances can be used at once. So for instance, one person could be washing dishes with hot water and another vacuuming in the other room without any problems. Just make sure the combined wattage of the appliances being used doesn’t exceed 10000 watts and doesn’t surge higher than 20000 watts for more than 40 milliseconds.
