Editorial Review: Amazon.com Product Description: The Xantrex Technologies XPower Plus 400-watt inverter provides portable power for trucks, RVs, boats, and minivans. By plugging the inverter directly into your vehicle's 12-volt cigarette lighter, you can turn your vehicle into a mobile office and operate devices such as a 27-inch TV or 20-inch TV/DVD combo, a camcorder, and a laptop computer. This compact, lightweight unit automatically senses low battery voltage so you never have to worry about a depleted battery. It's a quiet alternative to noisy, gas-powered generators; it will provide hours of emergency power during snowstorms or blackouts. The high-efficiency design transfers 90-percent of the battery's power to your equipment, providing 400 watts for 5 minutes, 600 watts surge for easy startups, and 300 watts continuous power for operating appliances. An automatic shutdown mechanism protects against overload, over-temperature and low battery conditions. The inverter is equipped with two 3-prong grounded AC outlets, a DC outlet and hardwire applications. The durable plastic unit is 5.9-by-4.1-by-2.2 inches in size and just 2.4 pounds in weight. It is covered by a 1-year warranty. Product Description: STATPOWER 300 WATT Average Rating:

Rating: - Works great with XboxThis inverter worked great with an Xbox (v1, haven't tried it with a 360 yet). Just plug a power strip into it if the sockets are too close together :) Rating: - Great bang for the buck!This came in real handy on a road trip to Dallas, kept the laptop running without any problems watching several DVD's. The cooling fan can be heard if you have the music down but not enough to bother me. The fan cycles on and off depending on load and cooling needs. Rating:  - Great to power laptop, speakers. Outlets are too close together.Purchased this for a trip from NJ out to Pittsburgh, then on to Chicago and back. We have 2 children we were going to purchase DVD players for, but I decided to use my IBM Lenovo Thinkpad from work to let them watch from the back seat of the car. Problem was that the battery would only last about 2 hours or so and the sound out of the laptop was non-existant with the road noise. Enter this beauty! I was able to power both the laptop and a set of external speakers. Imagine the kids wanting ... Read More Rating: - Does the jobHave used the inverter on a couple 2-hour trips. Ran a Dell laptop and video game chargers off it the whole time with no problems. Only possible issue is a whine introduced into the car stereo (aux input) from a laptop running off the inverter. In other words, I was running the laptop off the inverter and plugged the laptop's headphone output into the car stereo's auxiliary input and there was a noticeable whine coming out of the speakers. It didn't affect the operation of the stereo, laptop or inverter, ... Read More |
