Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the power output and overall performance of the POWER 500 Watt Power Inverter, especially noting the effectiveness of the USB charging ports. The device is also appreciated for its ease of use in smaller vehicles and reasonable price. However, some customers have reported concerns about excessive noise and, in a few instances, a strange smell.

    Plug for 12V power inside car is poorly designed!

    I was "forced" to buy this model simply because it was the only option available at the store near me. I can confirm that the plug for the cigarette lighter doesn't work right. Unsure if it's because the spring is too tough, so it doesn't stay plugged in, or if the metallic wings that connect with the barrel of the lighter are too short. Putting pressure on the plug to keep it plugged is a temporary workaround. I'm going to buy a separate plug and replacing the one that was supplied. Can't believe a company didn't test this! Should never have been made this poorly!

    Wires to small makes no sense to cost 65 dollars

    The wires are way too small. Good luck! If you're trying to run this into your cabin from your battery, they're like 2 to 5 inches

    I needed it to charge some medical equipment and I just used the auxiliary power in the vehicle cab. It worked great, the only negative is what others have already said, the plug for the auxiliary is really finicky and you have to pay attention or it will disconnect. This does give a warning beep when the power breaks.
