Review on ⚡ Duracell Power DRINVP150 Portable Power Inverter: 150W Peak/130W Continuous, Black by Dave Seawell

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I can't even put out 55W, the fan seems broken.

I tested this once at home with a 105w work lamp, it worked fine for a while, after plugging in, the fan spins. Now, a few weeks later, I've tried using it to power my laptop (85w charger) on during the day. Traveling (very old MacBook Air, I tested the charger at home, uses 35W-55W for me), the inverter switches off after a minute. None of the fans turned on when connected. Terrible quality. Accessible. Will try to exchange with Revain if exchange also fails I would like a refund! Update July 22, 2022: I ended up returning the Duracell inverter and got the 150W Energizer Pure Sine Wave Inverter. It was definitely a bit more expensive and bigger, but I've used it 3 times and haven't had any issues with it. The Energizer fan will sometimes turn on the fan once it heats up. It never had a problem powering my 85w Macbook charger and my 105w LED work light didn't make a loud noise when plugged in since it's a pure sine wave. Choose the Energizer over that poor quality Duracell. The Energizer One also fits in a cup holder, which is a plus. Another thing I regret about Duracell is that I spent 2 labels on it (I label all my stuff). I thought it was a quality product because I had a previous version of this product from ten years ago when it still had the power button (I lost it but it worked for me for many years).

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
