Amazon.com Product Description
The Xantrex Technologies XPower Plus 400-watt inverter provides portable power for trucks, RVs, boats, and minivans. By plugging the inverter directly into your vehicle’s 12-volt cigarette lighter, you can turn your vehicle into a mobile office and operate devices such as a 27-inch TV or 20-inch TV/DVD combo, a camcorder, and a laptop computer.

This compact, lightweight unit automatically senses low battery voltage so you never have to worry about a depleted battery. It's a quiet alternative to noisy, gas-powered generators; it will provide hours of emergency power during snowstorms or blackouts.

The high-efficiency design transfers 90-percent of the battery's power to your equipment, providing 400 watts for 5 minutes, 600 watts surge for easy startups, and 300 watts continuous power for operating appliances. An automatic shutdown mechanism protects against overload, over-temperature and low battery conditions.

The inverter is equipped with two 3-prong grounded AC outlets, a DC outlet and hardwire applications. The durable plastic unit is 5.9-by-4.1-by-2.2 inches in size and just 2.4 pounds in weight. It is covered by a 1-year warranty.

Customer Reviews

Great Inverter
Helped me up during a vacation trip. Worked without any problem for two laptops. Perfect for use in car. Thank you.

Works great
I bought this inverter to take camping. It has worked great. It's primary use on camping trips is to run a small pump to blow up a double stacked queen air mattress and occasionally charge up a laptop for watching movies.

It is very compact and has the ability to run off of the cigarette lighter or power point as well as running directly off of the car battery when more power is needed. It has also been perfect for charging camera batteries that were found to be dead right before a function.

They charge on the way there! It also gives me some piece of mind for times when the power goes out. The leads are easy to find in after market or simply make your own longer ones to run from the car into the house. So far I have not needed any more power then what this inverter delivers.

power converter special
This unit is very quiet and efficient. It does exactly what it was advertised to do, it is great for my comuter and charging applications.
