something else has to be up. the usb ports are pretty limited in what they can deliver and the inductor in line with it should pop if enough current is going through it to damage the circuit. a good inverter shouldnt have any issues. if all else fails just buy a spare battery and keep it charged. switch it to ac to swap batteries and youre good.
