Description of NEW XANTREX POCKET INVERTER 175 (GEN2)
The Xantrex Technologies XPower Pocket mobile power source 175-watt inverter utilizes advanced electronics to convert the 12-volt DC battery power from a vehicle or airplane into 115-volt household AC electricity. If your laptop battery runs low, simply plug into the AC outlet on the inverter and you have got portable power to keep working, just like you are at the office or at home. In addition to the AC power outlet, this inverter includes a USB port, which can power or charge an iPod, a Blackberry, and a wide range of other electronic devices. Weighing just 0.7 pounds, the XPower Pocket Inverter 175 easily fits inside even the most stuffed carry-on or laptop bag. Its integrated vehicle and airplane DC connector will keep your iPod music flowing, your cell phone charged, and your laptop running -- all without the need for multiple adapters. The inverter is covered by a 1-year warranty.Tools and Hardware Reviews of NEW XANTREX POCKET INVERTER 175 (GEN2)
Customer Review: It failed and I goofed
Summary: 2 Stars
Xantrex Technologies XPower Pocket Mobile Power Source 175-Watt Inverter #813-0291 It totally pooped out and failed after only a few months occasional use. It worked fairly well on some things like 85 watt curling iron and cellphone charger. It would recharge the laptop but struggled to power the laptop if the laptop battery was low. This despite the very low power demand rating on the laptop.
Recently on a long trip it just wouldn't work any more. We looked it over, tried a different cord on it, and it wouldn't respond. Forgetting it had a one year warranty and having no room for dysfunctional stuff, we tossed it in the trash. Rats!
We are shopping for a 400 or 500 watt inverter now. This one was marginal for our laptop and we need to be able to count on the inverter for the things we need it for. I wouldn't recommend this tiny device.
