Editorial Review: Amazon.com Product Description: The Xantrex Technologies XPower Pocket mobile power source 175-watt inverter utilizes advanced electronics to convert the 12-volt DC battery power from a vehicle or airplane into 115-volt household AC electricity. If your laptop battery runs low, simply plug into the AC outlet on the inverter and you have got portable power to keep working, just like you are at the office or at home. In addition to the AC power outlet, this inverter includes a USB port, which can power or charge an iPod, a Blackberry, and a wide range of other electronic devices. Weighing just 0.7 pounds, the XPower Pocket Inverter 175 easily fits inside even the most stuffed carry-on or laptop bag. Its integrated vehicle and airplane DC connector will keep your iPod music flowing, your cell phone charged, and your laptop running -- all without the need for multiple adapters. The inverter is covered by a 1-year warranty. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Parade DutyThis small inverter worked perfectly for adding strings of LED lights to my motorcycle for a local Christmas parade. It did get a bit hot (it has an internal cooling fan), but that was because it was inside a nylon pouch mounted on the bike. It would probably have run cooler if more air circulation were provided. Rating:  - impressive little inverterCharges my Thinkpad T60 with 9-cell battery without a problem. Very small, perhaps a little larger than a deck of playing cards. Will easily fit in a glove compartment. Whisper quiet. I can only hear its fan if I hold the inverter up to my ear. The membrane on/off switch with dual-color LEDs is a nice touch. The shiny plastic case is a fingerprint magnet. Construction is light but durable. The side panel with AC and USB plugs is robust metal. Mine is well put together. I think I'm going ...

It is small and powered my Dell D600 laptop without a problem using the battery adapter, but it got pleasantly warm. But there were some issues. 1. You must press a button to power it on and the small blue LED is very hard to see. If the power is interrupted, you've got to press the button to turn it on again. I'd prefer a slide or rocker switch for always on if powered. 2. The cigarette adapter didn't stay securely ... Read More Rating: - Accessible power on the roadFinally purchased an inverter to power a laptop and to recharge various battery powered devices on the road. The Xantrex was a nice small unit with enough oomph to charge batteries and run my laptop. This device fits easily in my glove box when not in use. I have already used the device several times and have been quite happy with it. My only complaint, I wish the cord that connects the unit to the lighter port was longer so the device could sit on the floor. Other than ...

I would invest in a higher quality inverter, I wish I never wasted my money.
