This inverter worked like a CHAMP on our cross country trip with our 6 yr. old grandson. It kept his PS2 and 12 inch plasma TV going the whole trip.Would highly recommend.

The unit is great but it has a few quirks. The earlier models had a switch instead of a pushbutton on and off. Most people would prefer the switch but it's not a big deal. Also the unit only comes with a 3ft battery clip hookup. So if your hardwiring this unit, get some 2 or 4 gauge wire ahead of time, like the manual suggests using. One last thing is the unit puts out a modified sine wave ac power. Instead of your standard smooth sine wave, it looks more like an aztec pyramid. So if your appliances need a standard sine wave output keep this in mind. If you have no idea what that means you'll probably be fine purchasing the unit..

I bought this power inverter at a local hardware store, 2 days after hurricane IKE. Of course we had a power outage and it performed well, used 4 hours to power up a black and white analog television and a 60 watt table lamp and a small floor fan. I was VERY pleased with the performance.

I bought this at a local chain store because it was the lagest one available. I was dissappointed when I opened it up and discovered they do not give you the 12v cigarette lighter adapter, this one only comes with the battery cables clips. I checked B&D's website and it confirms this. The 200W and 400W model come with BOTH. I am returning the 750W and getting the 400W instead.
