Anyone have any experience with this unit or brand?  It is a modified sine wave inverter.  Used it last night for the first time.  Seems to be OK.  Any concerns about using it with a computer? 
 
Devices that use switching power supplies, like nearly all computers today, work just fine on a MSW inverter.
 
Thanks for the replies. 

Before connecting the TV and DVD player I checked the voltage at the Inverter and batteries.  It was about 12.5.  After 2 1/2 hours the voltage dropped to just over 12.  Does that sound about right.  This morning the voltage had come back up to almost 12.5 again.  The batteries, 2 deep cycle 12V's  are about 2 years old.

It is normal, just make sure you shut OFF the inverter once you're done with the electronics; if you had a small solar panel that you could plug onto your batteries, that would help.
