It seems like Luminous has retired all of its old inverter models both sine wave and square wave models, and introduced new models with some improvisation in performance and look.
Luminous also removed all the information’s, manuals, specs etc. of their bestselling old inverter models from their official website.
But surprisingly most of the new models introduced are Square wave inverter models.
Let us see the list of new inverter models
List of New Inverter Models from Luminous
Luminous ION 300 VA inverter –square wave
Luminous ION 500 VA inverter – square wave

Why so many square wave models from Luminous?
From the above list,
Only Luminous Zelio 900 VA, Luminous Eco volt inverter and Luminous Invincible inverter are Pure sine wave models,
Luminous invincible is a limited edition model introduced as a tribute to master blaster Sachin. It is not available in towns and small cities.
So, Luminous Eco Volt and Zelio are the only option for people who want to opt in for Pure sine wave model inverter.
Though square wave models are successful and economic in India, Only Pure sine wave models are always recommended for sensitive electronic gadgets like desktop PC, Laptops, LCD and LED TV’s.
Conclusion
Though Luminous has introduced too many square wave models compared to sine wave models, we cannot ignore the innovative improvements in its ‘Eco Volt’ inverter model which is pure sine wave inverter packed so many improvements in battery charging and efficiency.
Luminous zelio 900 VA is also a good choice for home users. It is equipped with digital display unit to monitor the inverter.
Luminous has replaced its famous ‘Shakthi charge’ model with Luminous Rapid charge inverter model.
But this time Luminous has introduced 1500 VA inverter model with single battery option too, which is really innovative and Luminous is the first company to offer this kind of powerful square wave inverter which can be operated with single 12v battery. (Luminous Rapid charge is also available in 24v double battery model.)
This could be useful for end users who prefer to use their inverter for heavy applications.
We still recommend Pure sine wave inverter for modern homes, Luminous Eco Volt is best for using all kind of sensitive loads.
Luminous Eco volt inverter is available in three VA ranges
700 VA
900 VA
1500 VA (double battery model)
Choose the right model according to your requirement.
900 VA model is best for 2 BHK homes. You can operate your LED TV and kitchen mixer with this model.
Eco volt is Pure sine wave model and Eco watt is square wave model. Consumers will get confused with the appearance and model name of both inverters. Make sure that you are buying Pure sine wave model.
Dear Anand Karthi,
Installing a higher capacity battery when your actual requirement is pretty low doesn’t mean that you are wasting money.
Actually, it extends your battery life. Number of charge cycle decides the battery life, so installing a 150 ah battery will prolong the battery life.
Also, it doesn’t consume extra current, it’s a myth.

Hello Admin,
I have purchased Luminous Eco volt 1050 pure sine wave inverter and Amaron 150AH talll tubular battery.
Pl clarify the below.
1)When the Mains power is on, two visual indicators glow. i.e. Mains and ECO.
When the mains power is off , than also the same visual indcators glow.
Is this normal? shouldn’t the UPS inicator glow when main powere is off.
2) What does the ECO indicator signify.
3) Only when mains power is not there, iam manually switching on the inverter and when mains power is available, i am swicthing off the inverter. Is that OK or unnecessary.
