4.0 out of 5 stars Think
Things to think about before you buy:
Make sure your cigarette lighter socket has enough clearance around it to accomodate this large of an adapter.You may need one with a cord with the plug on the end to fit in your vehicle.
Make sure your intended use won't overload this adapter. It's rated up to 75 watts continuous duty.
Otherwise,it's a well made unit...

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy this from "Global Phone Co." NOT A REAL COMPANY!
If you order this, it comes from Global Phone Company. They sent me one that the package had been torn open, the item had obviously been used and damaged. When I called the "company" I talked to 2 people and I could hear DOGS BARKING IN THE BACKGROUND the whole time! They accused me of damaging the unit myself! Wanted me to ship it back at my own expense.
I DO...

Otherwise,it's a well made unit by a name brand manufacturer and they warranty it as such.Besides,[Amazon.com] stands behind your purchase.

Although I purchased this inverter some time ago, I am still using it quite a bit. This is great for any in car need for an electrical outlet. We use it to charge the kids' DS's and to plug in dvd players. I recommend this

4.0 out of 5 stars it works, April 13, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Xantrex Technologies 813-0078 XPower Mobile Plug 75-Watt Compact Inverter (Lawn & Patio)
I have had one of these for quite some time and I use it to charge my cell phone. It works great. Every now and then I have to pull it out and plug it back in to get it to work... but it works every time. It makes no noise (unlike the model with higher voltage) because it doesn't have a loud fan. It's a great option for accessories that don't need a ton of power.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great - never had an issue, November 28, 2009

This review is from: Xantrex Technologies 813-0078 XPower Mobile Plug 75-Watt Compact Inverter (Lawn & Patio)
I have used this in several different cars to power everything from a cell phone charger to a laptop to a car vac. It has an internal fuse, but I have never tripped it. I almost forgot, we even used this to power our fridge in a blackout by running a long extension cord from the car to the kitchen - we just let it run for a couple of hours to keep things cold/frozen.

I DO want to buy this product but WON'T BUY IF FROM THIS COMPANY! I don't think Global Phone Company is a REAL business. DON'T TRUST THEM!

2.0 out of 5 stars Mechanical un-reliable., January 31, 2005
By 
User "User" (Salinas, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Xantrex Technologies 813-0078 XPower Mobile Plug 75-Watt Compact Inverter (Lawn & Patio)
Just bought new today at local store. Compact, light, reasonable price, ... It works ... but ...
Test the first time: The spring pin is sticky (dc positive node) fail to spring back to original position when removing the inverter out of car socket.
Test the second, third time: Even with the spring pin stuck (loosing spring property), electrical function is still working fine.
Intend to exchange. Hopefully mechanical defect gone.
