To connect the Power Inverter, you need to run wires from the battery terminals to the inverter. This might be permanent if you are planning to set this up inside your car.

If permanent you need to choose a location where to install it and run the wire until the place where you are installing. Make sure to disconnect the negative terminal from the battery, and when running th positive cable avoid contact with metal.

There are other options such as running a gel battery in parallel and from this battery a cable to the inverter. Advantages are you will not drain your main battery as fast.

A 1000 watt power inverter hooks to the battery terminals directly, not through the cigarette lighter.

Need a manual for vector 700 VEC062

I can't find a manual for a Vector VEC062 700W power inverter. I did find a manual for the slightly older VEC061 Maxx SST 350W (700W peak) power inverter. Usually, the differences between models is small enough that the older manual will help you use the power inverter. See Manuals Lib, https://www.manualslib.com/manual/590724/Vector-Vec061.html , for the manual to see if it will help.

I wish that I could find out more on the VEC062.

Do I need to put a inline fuse or does the vector sst 1200 have a fuse or breaker in it

It probably does, but an in-line fuse is still the safest way to go, connected as close as possible to the voltage source as possible. The internal overcurrent protection device (aka, fuse or breaker) in the inverter will prevent the DEVICE from melting if it malfunctions. An in-line fuse will protect EVERYTHING if the WIRING malfunctions.

(Vector 400 Watt sst Power inverter) When I plug the Inverter into the Cigarette lighter of my RV, and the TV 26" into the inverter It won't work.

I am assuming that the inverter works with other devices. This being the case, i am thinking that the television start up current is drawing too much power too quick for the inverter to handle and this is what is shutting down the inverter.

Will not turn on

sounds to me like there is a dead short somewhere in the system, I would take it to an electrical appliance repair shop and they can fix it. If there are none in your town then look on the internet for one in your state so you won't have to send it very far to get it fixed.
