The best inverter on the market, period.
Use this weekly since 2005, after years of almost daily use, it was time to purchase a new one. But don't worry the 2005 model is just getting a new power cord.

Purchased this to power my CPAP in our motorhome. Perfect for the situation as long as you disable the humidifier.

Quiet and efficient inverter. I would buy another one.
I'm using this inverter to regulate the line voltage being fed to a lamp with a dimmer. I get the 12 VDC from a 10A power cube. This 'double regulation' filters out the normal power line fluctuations that gets amplified by a dimmer resulting in a fluctuating lamp intensity (due to dV/dT). Now the lamp intensity remains constant at all dimmer settings. I like this inverter because is does NOT have a fan, which would be annoying in a normally silent home environment. Only down side is that the output is a modified sine wave, but luckily, this isn't an issue for this application.

It works!
Love it! Was looking for an affordable charging option for my laptop. I came across this unit at an industrial supply store in Hope, BC.
I have a 1500W pure sine inverter for an induction cooktop I also want to install.
Ideally, I would just have a direct DC-DC converter for my laptop.

Absolutely excellent quality purpose-built inverter for those smaller jobs
I use this inverter to power a small "boom-box" entertainment unit by Sony which only can use batteries or AC current. It can play AM/FM stereo radio, cassette, CD and has a aux input for a music player. The current draw is small and well within the PV150 specs. It rarely if ever gets the slightest bit warm to the touch during use. Has never run down the car's battery even leaving it on over several days. It, like virtually all other, Tripp-Lite products, are excellent, durable, well-designed and reliable.

Sleek, Lightweight, Dependable
This unit is superb in every way. We use this to power a laptop or charge our batteries for impact drivers. The unit is super light weight and allows traveling with this a breeze. The dependability is top notch. Always carry extra fuses in case your device pulls more power than the unit puts out.

Ideal for customer site surveys.
Many times I am at a remote location at a customer site, and I require 110 VAC and there are no power outlets. I now have the ability to plug my instrumentation into my own AC power source and perform work as expected.
The size is ideal for quick power when needed.

The 150W PowerVerter exactly fits my needs to power my CPAP
I bought the 150W PowerVerter Ultra-Compact Car Inverter to run my CPAP (breathing machine) while I am camping, and in case our power goes out at the house. It works perfectly for my needs. Other inverters that I've used are larger, bulkier and also have a noisy fan that runs whenever they were connected and turned on. This inverter is very compact and runs silently (no fan). My CPAP is rated at 90W so the inverter has plenty of power for what I need.

I haven't had the opportunity to use my power inverter, yet. I store it in my mini RV/conversion van. It gives me so much peace of mind to know that I can power my CPAP if I can't find a plug in.

Does what it is designed for!
I purchased this product for running/recharging my laptop in mobile situations. It does the job very well for a standard laptop battery. It doesn't work well for fully depleted, extended life batteries, as the draw is beyond its design specs. The safeties work as designed, though!. Good job.

This product is what I expected or wanted when I ordered it. It has a very low battery drain on your car. I have COPD and I love to go fishing, but was unable to because I have to take breathing treatments and no way to run my machine. Now, I can go fishing and take my treatments when needed because of this unit.

this unit put out enough power for most items that we use when traveling. If you want to benifit from the "Peak" power,you need to ose the cable that clamps onto 12V battery directly.
