Cantonape 500W/1000W(Peak) Car Power Inverter DC 12V to 110V/120V AC Converter with LCD Display 2 AC Outlets and 2 USB Ports Car Charger Adapter for Car Laptop Truck Red

I use this for work and it has always been great for me!

As expected

Hard to give any stars. Within 5 minutes of the first use it strated smoking and the power wires melted. I used the included wires to plug it into the auxiliary outlet in my truck. My cell phone charger is always in that same plug so I know that is not the problem. I can also hear something inside the converter rattling around. Not good quality.

I will use this product when we go Can Am Trike rides. Will use to blow up the 110 Volt Air bed and what ever else we need to in the power range. Only gave a four Star Rating due to not using as of yet. which leads to no star rating for tech service and remote control. I do anticipate that this unit will operate as expected though. If not I shall return with an addendum rating.

I ordered this for emergency use in case of a power outage as some are predicting. I already have a couple of solar panels and 300ah LiFeP04 battery. I attached the alligator clamps from the power inverter leads to the battery and turned it on. Next I plugged in our big refrigerator and it hummed to life...no problems. Then I tried our small freezer plugged in by itself and that worked well too so this inverter will power our most important appliances but not the microwave (we have a gas stove anyway. Now this inverter is only about forty bucks ($35 with a coupon) which is a good deal. It comes with an on/off switch which some don't. It also has two Type A charging ports for accessories like cell phones, lights, etc. Now in addition to the alligator cables they provide, you also get a cigarette lighter cord so you can use it in your car. Keep in mind if you use that cable that you will be limited to only about 250 watts because of your car's wiring. You can still get the full 500 watts by using the alligator clip cables hooked directly to the car battery. The best part of the inverter is the built-in screen on the top. Mainly it shows your source battery voltage and output voltage. You can also see remains battery power. If you use your car battery, do not continue using the inverter if the battery drops to 50% remaining or you will damage the battery. Just run the car for more power. I highly recommend this power inverter to have on standby for use in emergencies. It will be great for car camping too!

Power cord is just long enough to be too short

This is a small 12 volt to 110 volt inverter. It is modified sine wave as most inverters are. So don't expect perfect AC power from it for sensitive devices. It is perfectly suited for charging devices like a laptop or batteries. It also includes two USB ports for charging a cell phone or anything else charging via USB. The fan cycles in and out as needed for cooling and makes some noise, but all inverters have a cooling fan. It is rated at 500-watts continuous power. So again, it's perfectly suited to charge a laptop on AC and a cell phone via USB. As a nice and relatively small inverter with a voltage display on the case, makes this inverter a good value for charging in your car.

(500W/1000W) This has everything I need, certainly enough power, with 2 AC and also the informative LCD. But it also has protections, which is nice, with 50A fuses high/low voltage protection, thermal protect, short circuit, and more. And the plugs are spaced apart so you can get 2 plugged in even if they're wall warts (probably depends on the shape of the plug though).

No me funcionó para lo que lo requería

Satisfait

I use it at an average of 50% of the max power (which is usually recommended for any power converter as the max power is only for temporary peak use and not constant use…) I use it mainly to charge my battery operated power tools and my electric bikes and it works perfectly. A bit noisy but as it’s in the garage for me, it doesn’t bother me.

It’s noise... so keep it under the hood, pull-up a cable cord and you will be fine. It worked fine, didn’t get too hot, it shows battery voltage and power consumption, and it has sound alarms to warn in case something goes wrong. Very light weight and easy to storage in the trunk or under the seat. It’s only 800W despite showing 2000W on the case.

One thing I didn't like about it was that the fan is always on, using up power, I sent it back with out any use because of this, I couldn't use it for a solar set up with fan on 100 percent of the time!
