Xantrex Freedom HF 1055 Inverter Charger - 120VAC 55A 12VDC Product Description
Power your off-grid adventures with confidence using the Xantrex Freedom HF 1055 inverter charger. This compact powerhouse delivers 1000 watts of continuous modified sine wave power from a 12V DC battery bank, surging up to 2000 watts to handle startup demands from microwaves, coffee makers, or power tools. Ideal for RVers hitting the open road, boaters enjoying extended cruises, or truck campers seeking reliable shore power independence, it combines an inverter and a robust 55-amp three-stage charger in one lightweight unit weighing just 10 pounds.
What sets it apart? Built-in smarts like ignition lockout prevent unnecessary battery drain when your engine's off, while quick-connect AC terminals make setup a breeze—no fussing with strain relief clamps. Whether you're recharging deep-cycle batteries after a day of fun or running household gadgets far from the grid, this inverter charger keeps things efficient at up to 87% peak efficiency.
Why Choose the Freedom HF 1055 for Your Mobile Power Needs?
- Versatile Power Delivery: Two GFCI-protected AC outlets plus hardwire options let you connect entertainment setups, small kitchen appliances, or sensitive electronics without worry. The automatic 30-amp transfer switch seamlessly switches between inverter mode and shore/generator power.
- Smart Battery Management: Multi-stage charging (bulk, absorption, float) optimizes recharge times for flooded, gel, or AGM batteries. Temperature-sensitive charging adjusts to ambient conditions for longer battery life.
- Compact and Rugged Design: Measuring 15.5 x 9.5 x 4.2 inches, it fits tight spaces in engine compartments or under RV benches. ETL certified to rigorous UL458 standards for marine, RV, and mobile commercial use.
- Remote Monitoring Made Easy: Detachable digital display with a 25-foot cable lets you check voltage, watts, and status from your dashboard or helm station.
Real-World Performance You Can Rely On
In everyday use, expect clean power for TVs, DVD players, and LED lights with minimal hum or interference. For power-hungry loads like a 1000W microwave, it handles the initial surge effortlessly. No-load draw stays under 10W, and off-mode sips less than 1mA—perfect for preserving precious amp-hours during storage.
Compared to other models in the Freedom HF lineup, the 1055 stands out with its high-output 55A charger, ideal for quickly topping off larger battery banks after heavy inverting. Pair it with 200-400Ah of house batteries for weekend warriors, or scale up for full-time setups.
| Model | Continuous Watts | Charger Amps | Weight (lbs) |
|---|---|---|---|
| HF 1020 | 1000 | 20 | 10 |
| HF 1055 | 1000 | 55 | 10 |
| HF 1800 | 1800 | 40 | 12.8 |
Effortless Installation for DIY Enthusiasts
Hardwiring is straightforward with labeled quick-connect blocks for AC in/out—no specialized tools needed beyond basic crimpers. Mount it securely in a dry, ventilated spot, connect DC cables (10-2/0 AWG recommended based on run length), and link the remote display. Ignition lockout wires integrate with your vehicle's starter circuit to auto-shutoff, saving juice on long trips.
Pro tip: Fuse the positive DC lead close to the battery (250-300A fuse) and use tinned marine-grade wire for boats to resist corrosion. Test under load before hitting the road—many users report plug-and-play success in under an hour.
Built-In Safeguards for Peace of Mind
- Battery over/under-voltage cutoffs prevent deep discharges or spikes.
- Over-temperature and overload shutdowns protect the unit during hot runs.
- Short-circuit and ground-fault protection keeps you safe from shocks or fires.
These features make it a trusted choice for demanding environments, from dusty off-road trails to salty marine air.
Perfect for These Mobile Lifestyles
- RV Boondocking: Run AC without a generator—quiet mornings with coffee and news.
- Marine Cruising: Charge batteries from the alternator or shore while powering cabin gear.
- Truck/Overland Builds: Essential for roof-top tents with fridges, lights, and fans.
Longevity Tips from Power Pros
Keep vents dust-free, check connections quarterly, and monitor the remote display for early warnings. Avoid prolonged full-load runs in extreme heat to maximize the unit's lifespan. Users often get years of service with basic care.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Xantrex Freedom HF 1055 power sensitive electronics like laptops?
Yes, its modified sine wave output works well for most laptops, chargers, and LED devices. For high-end audio or medical gear, consider pure sine alternatives, but many report no issues.
What's the difference between the 1055 and the 1020 model?
Both offer 1000W inverting, but the 1055 packs a 55A charger versus 20A, making it faster for recharging larger banks—great if you run heavy loads often.
Does it come with DC cables or a remote?
DC cables aren't included—size them to your setup. The detachable digital remote is pre-attached with a 25-foot cable for easy mounting.
How does ignition lockout work?
Wire it to your ignition switch: inverter powers down automatically when the key is off, preventing idle drain—essential for vehicles with deep-cycle auxiliaries.
Is it suitable for lithium batteries?
It supports flooded, gel, and AGM profiles. For lithium (LiFePO4), use the fixed 13.5V float setting and monitor—many users adapt it successfully with external BMS.
What size battery bank do I need?
For 1000W loads at 50% duty, aim for 200-400Ah at 12V. Calculate runtime: Watts x Hours / (Volts x Ah x Efficiency) for precise sizing.
Can it handle a coffee maker or toaster?
Absolutely—the 2000W surge covers startup watts (often 1500-1800W). Limit to 5-10 minutes to avoid overheating.
The Freedom HF Inverter/Charger is one of the smallest, lightest, and most affordable inverter/chargers in the market today. The Freedom HF Inverter/Charger features modified sine wave output and is designed to operate entertainment systems and small appliances in boats, RV’s and trucks. Some of the key feature enhancements include quick-connect AC terminal block on both AC input and output for incredibly easy installation. The ignition lockout feature minimizes battery drain by disabling the inverter when the ignition is turned off.
