Xantrex Technologies 813-0081-00 XPower Pocket Mobile Power Source 100-Watt Inverter

From the Manufacturer
The XPower Pocket Inverter 100 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’ve got portable power to keep working, just like you’re 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 you can’t live without. The XPower Pocket Inverter 100 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.

Customer Reviews

Hasn't failed yet
This is a slick, useful product that does just what it says it will do. I used to work at Radioshack, and we sold a lot of these, and they were hardly ever returned, so I got one for myself. I use it to charge my cellphone (with the house charger) and my laptop while I'm traveling. It is much more quiet than other inverters, has a big, blue indicator light to show when it is working, and is slim enough to slip under a seat, or even between the center console and a seat (where I have mine). It says "100 watts", but that is only the peak output. Continuous output is only 80 watts, so be sure to check that what you are using it for is 80 or less. It is great for battery charging, but don't even think of running a vacuum or a power tool, that isn't what it is intended for.

Works Great - Used on American 767-300
Used it on a trip to Hawaii and it worked great on our American Airlines 767-300. It worked with a mini-DVD player, Ipod, and powered my Compaq V2000 laptop. It does get pretty hot, but if you leave it on the floor it shouldn't bother you. Great for long trips! [...]

Excellent Converter
I no longer use my 12 volt power adapter for my laptops since I purchased the Xantrex. This is perfect to carry on any trip where you will need power in a vehicle for any 110 volt electronic device or USB device. I like it so much I have been buying them as gifts for my friends. It's small size and light weight make it ideal to carry as you travel.
