Is there anyway to manage inrush current spikes with an AC motor?
I'm looking at powering one of these from an inverter. It's rated at 250W but I suspect the inrush would mean that a 400w inverter would trip out on startup.
Not one that's going to be cheaper than buying a bigger inverter, if the one you have doesn't fancy the job.
