who likes long car rides

So far we have bought 3 of these. My husband, who works from home, has to be ready to take a skype call anytime and program something urgent, troubleshoot, etc. He travels with his laptop, but often we had to rush home because his laptop is there only 3% charged and has to make an emergency call at home where he can charge which he otherwise would have done. brought to the car. This solves the problem for us as he can charge his laptop without any problems. one for him The other is for my family who enjoy long car rides but are tech nerds. They apparently attach an extension cord to it, stretch it in the back seat of their ten-seater van, and everyone plugs in their devices: laptops, tablets, phones, Kindles. Stop worrying about wasting battery on a 10-hour drive and only use your device for essential purposes. Warning: There is a limit to how many watts you can safely use at one time with this inverter, so do a quick calculation before connecting too many devices. The third device is the reason for the missing sprocket. Whenever we connected it to the car, the car burned out. No matter what machine we connected it to, the problem must be with the inverter. We bought this as a gift for my son in law and he wasn't happy! This experience frightened us so much that we bought the next device with great caution and tried it the first time when the car was safely parked in the driveway, with extra backups at hand and no urgent appointments. Thankfully none of the fuses blew after charging the laptop for around 20 minutes, so we've provided all the details.
