Lightium Active Member Mar 1, 2024 #2 See the fifth picture across the bottom. It's some kind of inverter for a motor.
rjenkinsgb Well-Known Member Most Helpful Member Mar 1, 2024 #3 It's a "Variable frequency drive" - a speed controller for three phase AC motors. An inverter with AC in and three phase variable voltage & frequency AC out. (The very first one we used, decades ago, cost around £5000 for a 6KW one; it was massive!)

D Diver300 Well-Known Member Most Helpful Member Mar 2, 2024 #5 The listing is for inverters of various powers and colours, and for a remote control panel which could well be useful in some applications. The remote control panel seems to have dropped to less than £1. It is just the remote control panel. The inverters themselves are around £40 which is still cheap but believable. Like rjenkinsgb, I remember paying over £1000 for a 1.5 kW inverter a long time ago, and £80 for a 3 kW inverter in the last few years.
