7S is 24V, not 8S. And 8P still isn't enough, you want a bit more that that, even with 24V. If you plan to use the 300W that is. 15P for reused laptop battery cells.
That inverter seems pretty expensive for a 300W unit, but I'm not familiar with your market. Here in Germany I can buy a decent quality 24V 300W pure sine wave inverter for about 80 EUR. That's about 95 USD. I suggest looking at established companies or brands that belong to a shop, i.e. hardware by some OEM sold under its own label. They usually don't want to sell some shit because it has their name on it. And only buy a unit with a comprehensive documentation/specification that is presented to you up front. If you have to search for basic information -> look for another product.
