KISAE Technology Inc. In order to serve all of our customers better, we're delighted to announce the introduction of our new BIC line of premium performance inverter-chargers for the leisure and commercial markets. This new BIC line offers the user true sinewave output and comes in two versions: the BIC1220080, providing 2000W continuous output and mated to 80A battery charger, and the more powerful BIC1230100, which produces 3000W continuous output power wed to a 100A battery charger.

"We designed the BIC line for users who require a premium onboard power system with extreme performance, connectivity and configurability as their chief concerns. With its powerful true sine wave output, multi-stage micro-processor controlled charging capability, massive surge capacity, flow-through architecture and compact design, the new BIC line will enable recreational and commercial users to enjoy their comforts anytime, anywhere, just as if they were at home," said Lawrence Neill, KISAE Technology's director of Worldwide Sales. "The new BIC line is Power plus Power. They deliver the most comprehensive set of features ever offered by KISAE in a product at this price point."

Offering maximum performance, configurability and system integration, these new BIC products are bi-directional - accepting AC or DC input from a variety of sources including solar panel, vehicle alternator, generator or utility/shore power. Each has a lengthy feature set including KISAE's PowerBoost™ technology, which ¬¬delivers a brief surge of power at twice the rated output - great for starting even the most difficult of loads; KISAE's proprietary Ignition Control Technology (ICT) which constrains battery drain when the vehicle ignition is turned to OFF, CAN BUS communication technology, allowing the BIC to communicate with micro-controllers resident within other onboard equipment and seamless switching is enacted in <30ms via an integrated 30A transfer switch.

Protection features include Auto Charger Input Under-Voltage Shutdown and Auto Inverter Overvoltage Shutdown. All BIC products are Regulatory Approved to meet UL and CSA standards for North America, and CE standards for the UK, EU, AU/NZ. KISAE offers AC output receptacles for any country worldwide, with NEMA 5-20 GFCI offered for North America. Alternatively, either product version can have its AC output hardwired. Each BIC inverter-charger is packaged with its own remote mountable LCD digital display offering numerous programmable command-and-control settings for various battery input types, including Lithium batteries.

Pricing and Availability

Pricing for the BIC1220080 starts at $749.99 MSRP, while the BIC1230100 starts at $999.99 MSRP. Technical specifications, product datasheets and configure-to-order outlet options are available at www.kisaepower.com/downloads.
