My only complaint is its kind of noisy with the fan on, but you cant hear it anymore when the radio is on.

Holds up wellOct 26, 2007
By Diane Abney "busybee"
I am a truck driver and purchased this three years ago. I have used it four or five days a week, six or eight hours per day, on average to use a heating pad on my back, run a large boom box to play cassette tapes, recharge cell phones and PDAs at various times. The fan noise that others mention was never a problem because the truck is quite loud, but I never had trouble with overheating or overloading like I did with smaller inverters with no fan. This is a real workhorse, one of the best gadgets I ever purchased for use at work.

Small, well-built and extremely quiet.Aug 02, 2006
By S. Chase
Excellent design! After much research, I purchased this item and have used it extensively for the past couple months. So far, nothing negative to report. Many reviews commented on how loud the fan was but I barely heard it at all. Nor did it get too warm. It's pretty basic mechanically, so I assume it's as dependable as any other inverter. If you're not sure what size to get, always be on the safe side and GO LARGE! Tripp Lite makes them in various sizes.

Best bang for the buck.Jun 25, 2009
By Mark Spark "markspark"
I have used this inverter in my work van for 3 years. I use it daily (yes, daily!!) to power my DeWatt, Hitashi, Ryobi, 18 volt battery chargers and occasionally my drill doctor, etc. I plan to buy another inverter to run my bedroom 42" lcd tv (200 watts) in an emergency and I will buy this exact same product again. It is slightly noisy(mild whine at best) but that is not a factor for emergencey power. I blew the fuse only once when I overloaded the device and I knew better, but I had to push the limit to learn. Do buy this product, but do plan on spending another well spent $45 dollars on battery cables and clamps, etc. The cig lighter connector is just a convenience and not able to pull the full 375 watts. I spent plenty for twin copper #10 wire and pricy connectors to mount this bad boy inside my van. But it remains the best bang for the buck device. You must pay the extra for heavy amp wireing to your truck battery. Get wise, buy this, then spend again for 12 volt supply wireing and you will never be sorry, and always have power!

Too noisyNov 30, 2004
By Matt Smith
I got this inverter because it is compact, has a good power rating, and has two outlets. Unfortunately, I had to stop using it, because it is just too noisy to use in my car.

I preferred the APC Air/Auto DC to AC Power Inverter, which is fanless and silent. That one only has a single outlet and only supplies 75w, but it's enough to run my laptop.

In a different environment, I could see this being an excellent choice.
