5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have!, June 29, 2009

This review is from: Xantrex Powerpack 300EP Emergency Jump Starter with Built-In Power Inverter and Air Compressor (Automotive)

I've had my Xpower Powerpack 300 EP for over 4 years now and can't imagine my home without it. I've taken it camping, jumped my truck battery with it, inflated a flat tire, and most importantly used it to charge my cell phone, light a table lamp (using a 9 watt spiral fluorescent bulb) & run my portable DVD player after losing power during/following Hurricane Ike last September! Clicks for a little while when recharging from being completely drained but that goes away after the battery starts holding a charge. A real comfort to have!

This is an all purpose emergency tool.

It provides 300 watts of AC power, which you can use to recharge your cellular phone, run a laptop computer, radio, or even a television.

It provides 12V DC power, which you can use to run anything that runs on a cigarrette lighter.

It can jump start your car if the battery is dead (4 cylinder and most 6-cylinders).

It has a rechargeable LED Flashlight.

It has a air compressor/pump that can inflate your tires.

And you can recharge/power it using the cigarrette lighter in your car or using an AC power source.

Haven't gotten the opportunity to use any of the power pack features other than the flashligh. Very bright. One caveat is that I ordered the Xpower POWERPACK, but the Amazon's affliated parter sent the DURACEL brand which got low marks from users, but has the same features as the Xpower. I questioned the retailer, and their response was that DURACEL manufactures the powerpack for Xpower. My response - "Hmmmmm..... why not just advertise and sell the Duracel?"

Update: I used this unit on 7/29/09 after a bad tstorm in the DC area, and the extra power outlets came in handy when using my laptop, and charging the cell phone. Used it again on 9/7/09 to assist my elderly neighbor with her Mitusbishi Galant that would not start (Car is less than 1yr. old so I was wondering why it wouldn't start). Connected the DURACEL power pack to the battery terminals and the car started right up. Excellent.
