5 out of 5 stars Best on the Market   August 20, 2007
O. Shestakov (Maple Shade, NJ United States)

Before getting this product you have to understand it's limitations. It's power is 75 Watt. It is enough to charge your phone and laptop, not enough to work+charge your laptop.

This device is just the best on the market:
1) Power is stable
2) I never burn the car plugs with it - when the power is OVER 75, it disconect the circuit from the car
3) It does not get overheat

I tried other devices of different companies and was very disappointed:
-if pover over 75 Watt there is a great chance that your car plus will be destroyed
-a lot of devices get overheat
-a lot of devices get provide very "unstable" power
-a lot of devices are much bigger in size

So, if you understand and assume limitations, this is the best you can get (or, if your car has much stronger electrical system, I'd take 120 or 150, but it can bring the risk of burning the plugs)

______________
PS - I'm using this device for 2 years and very happy. Again, you have to understand limitaions - THOSE ARE NOT OF THE DEVICE, BUT OF YOUR CAR! IT'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CAN NOT PERFORM BETTER!



1 out of 5 stars The worst power inverter I've seen yet   September 20, 2005

First off, this thing was almost too long to fit between the "lighter" and other parts of the vehicle. I bought this to power my laptop on a trip, and it worked fine on the way out. On the way back though, the power kept cutting out randomly as said in another review. When I unplugged to, it fell apart. For the rest of the trip it kept falling apart, and eventually I lost the internal spring and couldn't re-assemble it. It was the worst thing I have ever bought


2 out of 5 stars Not quite as advertised   June 12, 2004

I have a Dell laptop. This inverter provides sufficient power to recharge the battery while I drive. But it 'cuts out' if I try to turn on the laptop to use it in the vehicle. The information on Amazon.com doesn't make clear the limitations of this product.
