Review on 200W Car Power Inverter: DC 12V to 110V AC Converter with 2 AC Outlets, 4 USB Ports for Quick Charging, Cigarette Lighter Socket, LED Display - Ideal for Phones, Tablets, Laptops by Leroy Wolfe

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Small, quiet, lightweight, easy to carry and ideal for travel

This small, pocket-sized car inverter is very quiet, I could hardly hear the fan running even when the car is parked. All sockets worked as expected and the LED display shows the current output current and voltage each time the socket is used. I assume the maximum combined current for 3 regular USB charging ports is 2.4A since my old iPhone only drew about 0.9A from those ports, but when I have another device like my portable fan running at max speed plug it in, the LED showed a combined current of 1.8 amps. The Quick Charge USB port is also a good option when I need to charge my phone quickly and it's definitely faster than the other 3 regular USB ports. As for the two three-prong outlets, they had no problem charging my laptop on the go. A separate on/off switch on the side can turn off these two outputs when not needed. By the way, two extra fuses are also included in the box in case you might need to use pliers to loosen the screw to get to the fuse the first time. Another nice feature of this inverter is that you won't lose your cigarette lighter socket with this inverter as it has a built in cigarette lighter adapter to replace the one you are using. Otherwise it's a really nice, small, very compact, quiet inverter that does a lot better than my old clunky inverter, which I'll definitely take with me on my next trip.

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
