This rocks! Emergency power on the go!Mar 20, 2005
By Sportynyc "sportynyc"
This powerpack pretty much works as advertised. The coolest thing is the builtin 400 Watt inverter which allows you plug in almost any AC powered device. Great for emergency power or just portable camping power! Unit charges quickly using the supplied DC adapter or in about a day using the supplied AC adapter.

The only drawback is that the builtin air compressor isn't fan cooled so it can only operate about 10-15 minutes at a time before it over heats and air flow could be higher. Another option would be to plug in a high flow, heavy duty air compressor into the builtin 12V outlet or inverter.

Nifty safety backup.Aug 21, 2005
By Gary Cunningham "The gWhizz"
This is a solid product. I didn't think I needed the built-in air compressor, but it suddenly saved the day for a few bike tires. And after you deflate your vehicle tires for beach travel, you can get back to street pressures without a lot of hassle. The Powerpack 400 is a bit pricier for a reason - it packs more ampere-hours into a small unit. I take it camping into remote locations where I'm guaranteed that I won't have to walk out due to a dead battery. So then I'm comfortable running some low wattage lights in my tent. I can even watch a DVD movie on my iMac G5 computer without running out of power. It recharges using the car's cigarettte lighter and, while you're at home you can leave it on the AC-DC charger indefinitely. A super product, compact product.

W orks like a charmApr 02, 2005
By Ojibwas
Bought this through Amazon because they sale it at a lower price then what others sale it for and free shipping to.But the Powerpack works like a charm,best if you charge it for more than 35 hours before useing.But it has everything you need if you go camping or just useing it around the house.If it gets to hot(Esp. when useing the air pump) it will automatically shut down untill it has cooled down,it shocked me at first when it happend thinking I just fried the thing,so don't let it run for to long.It has 2 AC outlets for small appliances.Has indicater to show how much percent of power is left and how much juice you are useing when useing the AC outlets.It has everything you need in case of an emeregency either away on the road or at home.A great size and easy to carry and handel.It has a cigerate liter port for charging the Pack or useing a device that has that type of plug. 5 stars ........

Great product, works as advertised. Tested some actual run times.Dec 07, 2005
By Fred
I bought this mainly for some kind of backup power during our hurricane season in Florida.

I tested the following items separately to see what kind of duration I'd get:

Dell Inspiron 8100 laptop - 4.8 hours before alarm sounded (uses 70 watts)

Emerson 13 inch color tv - 4.1 hours before alarm sounded (uses 72 watts)

The unit actually came almost fully charged for me. When recharging after totally drained it took about 30 hours until I got the solid green light. One person had a great idea, during a power outage for a couple days, and after using up all the juice in the generator, he used his car to recharge it. It says it would take 3 hours to charge a fully drained generator through the cigarette lighter but when you don't have power for a week, that's a nice way to keep the unit going.

Very good product.Sep 09, 2006
By Amazon Ahnold
I've had one of these units for about a year. It's been very useful. Jump started my (seldom used) full size pickup truck twice, my wife's Honda Civic once. Also used the 120VAC outlet to make smoothies with a blender, just for fun. Plenty of power. A couple of shortcomings... The air compressor has very small capacity (high pressure but low flowrate). Works fine for filling basketballs and footballs. But, when I tried to use it to blow up my daughter's inflatable wading pool...forget it. It would have taken hours...was much faster blowing it up the old fashioned way. Also, the jumper cables are kind of short. You have to balance the (heavy) unit somewhere in engine compartment, in close proximity to the battery, so that the clamps will reach the battery terminals.
