Belkin 140w DC/AC Inverter

Good, stylish charger; can use cell phone or electronics while the item is being charged. There is a slight humming noise due to the fan, but while you are driving (especially on the highway) it is not that noticeable. Be sure to have the switch to the unit in the "OFF" position before plugging into the cigarette lighter. Plug in, then wait 15 seconds for the unit to warm up. Make sure that your car is actually running since idling the car will not be sufficient to power up the unit. Not doing so will result in the unit beeping and the red light flashing from time to time. Wait for the green light. Now you can use your normal household plug. Be sure to turn off the unit before turning off your car engine, since it might force your radio to stay on even though the key has been taken out of the ignition. I know it's a hassle, but what do you expect for emergency power. =) So far so good. I will keep you updated otherwise. (Be sure to read the instructions manual that came with the power supply. This is just a summary of what I've read)

Purchased locally (not Amazon). Occasional use for the last 9 months and it has been perfect. Things like (occasionally power goes out at home, in addition to mobile applications, hence the router was powered using a portable 12V source):

-13" MacBook Pro

-HP printer

-Router/modem

-Cell Phone chargers

Cannot vouch for the output AC wave characteristics/shape, but the AC voltage has been a rock solid 115VAC with a 140W load on it. Originally purchased another brand, but it did not work for more than a couple of minutes before shutting off (sorry, do not remember that brand).

If you are buying an inverter locally, you may want to consider taking whatever you are intending to power with you so you can test it in the parking lot after you big it in case it does not work for you (saves a trip back and forth to the store to return it).

I have had two different models of the Belkin PcAnywhere inverters over the last 5 years. Both have failed and they are not reparable. One unit had an external fuse the was not blown. That unit always showed "overload" with nothing plugged in. The other unit (with no fuse (inline or otherwise)) simply gave up and would not even power on. I would recommend staying away from these units. I have a ProStat 250 that is still working great.

Love this power supply! It's compact, light and very easy to use. It has been a life saver (job-saver?) for road trips that have gone a little long. The compact size and relatively long cord make it easy to place nearly anywhere in the car without taking up valuable foot space or cargo room.
