GREAT January 23, 2005
By Bryan
this inverter does wonders. On a road trip this past summer, we drove from colorado all the way out to new york city, with many stops in between. The whole time, we had the tv and ps2 hooked up thru the inverter, and never did we have any problems. played constantly, it was great. DEFINITELY BUY IT if you are looking for a way for your kids to have fun in the car, or wherever. WORTH EVERY LAST PENNY!

Solid & Smart Design October 21, 2008
I've owned several power inverters since I travel just about half of the week every week. I'm always working from the car. This is the best design I've seen so far for a power inverter. First, it has two inputs which is great. This way I can plug my laptop in and still be able to charge...a cell phone, or run another electronic device such as a portable DVD player. Another solid feature is the internal fan. This enables the unit to stay COOL. Other inverters I've had get so hot, you can barely touch them, which probably led to their malfunction in the first place. The other great feature is that the fuse for this device is EXTERNAL. Which means if it blows, its easy to replace. The last couple I've had have died and the fuse was the culprit, but since it was internal, it wasn't a simple fix. So thats a great design innovation on this one. Its also good that the power inverter comes with battery clips too..this way you can run it from the car lighter or the battery direct.

Good Value August 23, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is quite a nice unit for the money. Mine came with two cords - the cigarette lighter cord shown in the picture and a cord with alligator clips for connecting directly to the battery. It has an automatic short circuit detector and shutdown, a low battery voltage alarm and low voltage shutdown so you won't wreck your car battery, and automatic overload detection and shutdown. It has two outlets, a power switch, and an automotive type fuse, and an attractive metal case. Fairly impressive for the price.

I've only had this for a week so I can't speak about its reliability. I can confirm the fan noise, but I looked around a bit and that seems to be a common complaint about all the small inverters. The outlets have a ground pin, but users should not be deceived -- unless the unit itself is grounded (to a ground stake) the only ground is the chassis of the car. That's true for all of these units.

Jensen JP30 Inverter
This thing works great. No problems with it what so ever. I read some others complain of the fan noise but it wasn't loud enough to bother me at all. I strongly recommend it!
