 Solid product, good performance September 4, 2008
T. Layman (Athens, OH, USA)
This inverter worked very well for an 11 hour journey while powering a laptop for music enjoyment. The fan in the unit was a little loud, but it was drowned out by the music of course. I would recommend this product to others.
 Cheap and Very Useful August 28, 2008
T. Malinowski (Monsey, NY, USA)
The device is very good for notebooks and other small divices. For me, I am using for buffering(waxing the car) and it is working super. It is totally worth it.
 Bad Experience August 13, 2008
Michael Kaganek (Manalapan, NJ USA)
The cooling fan was making noise on initial use. After a few hours of use the cooling fan stopped working causing the unit to overheat. It could have been an isolated occurance. I sent it in for exchange. Otherwise it's a nice design.
Great on a trip August 8, 2008
coastal creature (CA USA)
I used this product on a long road trip to charge a laptop, digital camera, electric toothbrush, cell phones. Only drawback is the fan - not real noisy on the highway but will be loud parked. But, it is very convenient.
Works Great July 15, 2008
Pleasant Grove
This item works great. I used it to power my laptop on long distance drive and I had no problems with it. Some people complain about fan noise. It blends in with the road noise from driving just fine. If you listen for it, you'll definitely hear it, but you eventually forget it's there.
