 There is little clear information on the topic since running them off inverters is an extreme minority position, but it appears that speed controls work best on PSW inverters.  They may run on MSW but seem unable to reduce power less effectively (see below) and may run hotter.  There is little clear information on the topic since running them off inverters is an extreme minority position, but it appears that speed controls work best on PSW inverters.  They may run on MSW but seem unable to reduce power less effectively (see below) and may run hotter. 
  
-While resistive loads don't care about MSW vs PSW, inductive loads like motors will run hotter and "notchier" on MSW.  So you might want to run the latter off PSW whether or not a controller is used. +While resistive loads don't care about MSW vs PSW, motors will run hotter and "notchier" on MSW.  So you might want to run the latter off PSW whether or not a controller is used.
