Works great

I bought this over a year ago and it was an excellent purchase.I plugged a power strip into this, and use it to charge my Compaq Armada laptop, cell phone, and a AAA battery charger all at once without any problems.Having AC power in the car is quite convenient.

Great for trips

I used this converter to power a 13" TV/VCR combo in our van during along trip recently. It was great. The kids sat in the back and watchedmovies and it made the trip much nicer. My only complaint is that it goesoff when you stop the car and then you have to unplug everything and replugthem in when you are ready to use them again. Overall it was great though.

no problem here....

I had no problem powering my toshiba laptop with this inverter.I wasdrawing approximately 140 watts -- a bit more than one amp and things workfine.

The short answer is that it works great, when plugged in to a carbattery (ie via the cigarette lighter port), as it was intended to beused.

It's possible that you could plug this inverter into some hokeybattery-charging device meant to 'recharge' your auto battery, but I doubtthat you'll get that much power out of it as you only get out most of whatyou put in.
