Hi Bob,
I can't find the power curve right off, but the DR like any inverter is dominated by its tare loss at light load, which is about 8W in this case, so running a 10W load will not be very efficient on a percentage basis! The DR hits peak efficiency around 300W output. Cheers, Mark Mark Edmunds, P.Eng. Director Engineering Residential Renewable Energy Markets Xantrex Technology Inc.

I need to show a customer that it is not 94% effecient with a 10 watt ac led pluged into it alone. I am betting that it needs 500 watts to get into the 75 or 80% range. Thanks, Bob
