The title and intro say it all really.
I'm looking for a circuit that I could add to an existing inverter to make it turn on when there is a demand. I'm hoping to run my mains powered lights from a small inverter but don't want it on all the time if I can help it.
The lights are all CFL, and so I'm hoping the initial 'demand' isn't that great, in that I'm not calling for enough power to start a tumble dryer, just one 11w bulb at first instance.
I have searched by the way, but it's not easy when you don't know quite what it's called.
Is there anything easy I can build?
Thanks
