I've searched for the answer, evidently, I'm "search challenged", as I didn't find what I was looking for. All information I found was how to make a charger. I want to know if I can make just an inverter from a UPS. Sounds easy, just hook it up to 24vdc source and - bingo. But I find that it's not quite that easy. Either that, or the "dead" UPS's I have are just that, anchors. I have several, all 24vdc. The largest one is a Tripp Lite Smart 2200. There is something wrong with all of them, but none the components look like they've had the smoke released. They all have nice transformers, relays and bridges with nice heat sinks. The largest transformer has 8 - 8 guage wire connected to the bridge/heat sink - 4 to one side and 4 to the other. The other side of the transformer has 5 - 12 gauge wires that are connected to various relays. It's all nice looking stuff. Is it at all possible to make an inverter from the components - 24vdc in - 110vac out?
