Would a 12v Mercer inverter work with any 12v battery ?

[maq_]

Perhaps a silly question but would a Mercer 12v 1200va inverter work with any 12v battery or would you need a minimum of a 12v 100ah battery?

If I use a small 10ah battery for example, other than getting really small capacity would it still work?

Inverter in question is the inverter below

Should work as long as its voltage is correct.

Keep in mind that it chargers at 10amp . That means within 1hr a battery of 10amp capacity will be fully charged. At that rate it's possible a lead acid battery will overheat and may cause problems or even set fire.

I have the 2400va version running two 12v 50AH Lalela LiFoPO4 batteries and been working perfectly for months, as mentioned just make sure of the charge amps supported.
