Posted by: Ringee from MA on 09/19/2012Good product. However makes a lot of noise - guess it is the fan used for cooling the step up transformer. But works good for me.

Worked fine but too loud

Posted by: Dhartley from Birmingham, al on 07/31/2012Bought this and used it on a road trip for a cople days. It worked fine but made a high pitched whining from the fan running that gave me a headache and was ear piercing. I returned it when I got home and got another one at another store that was actually cheaper and it's whisper quiet. It seemed solid and well built but I just couldn't take the noise.

Posted by: Peapaw from Texas on 07/25/2012This inverter works, but it is very loud. The fun is so loud that is distracting.

Great purchase

Posted by: stml from Machesney Park, IL on 07/25/2012We purchased this to run my laptop in the car on trips. It works great if you have auxiliary plugs that are exposed. It does not fit in consoles. This is not the fault of this product. It is how they design the cars and where they place the sockets in them.

Piece of Junk
1
Posted by: EDinSC from SC on 05/02/2012I travel back and forth from NJ to SC every month for business. Bought this on recommendation of the tech at Best Buy. Used it on my trip up to NJ and it work for about 2 hours. Used it on my way back for about 1 hour and fan came on. VERY LOUD even with the AC on. I am on my way back to NJ and plugged it in. 15 minutes into using it the fan came on (never came on on the first use I might add). Next thing I realized is that the computer is no longer charging. Unplugged it, to let it cool down, replugged in and nothing. Guess it is shot. Guess it costs $10,00 an hour to use. Never would buy this product again and can't return it to Best Buy.

Works as advertised!

Posted by: HouTXnative from Houston, TX on 04/19/2012I purchased 15 of these for my business colleagues in preparation of the upcoming hurricane season (to run laptop/cell chargers should we lose power after a storm). While they provide a steady stream of power, some have mentioned the internal cooling fan never shuts off. As for me, I won't be complaining if it works when needed.

Mixed Rating

Posted by: Ben34 from El Centro, Ca on 03/14/2012I am giving mixed ratings for this product. The unit worked, but the fan is loud and very annoying. I thought something was wrong with it and returned it. Ultimately, I bought another more expensive unit (new unit exactly same style / function, etc. but higher price) and the new unit is completely silent. If you don't mind the noise, this one is ok.

Great - Exactly what I needed

Posted by: DrewA from Phoenix, AZ on 08/15/2011Yes, the fan is a little noisy - but this unit will not overheat like others I have used in the past. Perfect for charging my phone and laptop at the same time.
Was able to go on vacation, yet still maintain contact - without having to worry about where I was going to plugin.

Good overall product

Posted by: jlcam from Minneapolis, MN on 03/03/2011This product does a good job, but is a little loud as it has a fan that runs to keep it cool. It is fine if you are going to put it in a closed compartment in your car or something, but is a little loud to just plug into you cigarette lighter on your dash.
