Digital camera reviews of Xantrex Technologies 851-0178 XPower 175-Watt Micro Inverter

Digital camera Review: A good solution to feed home electronics in a car
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought this device trying to eliminate endless number of car chargers for cell phones, PDAs and DAPs used in a car.

What is good for this inverter
1. small size
2. a good fit in cig lighter that provides AC feed without interruption at bumpy ride

What is bad for it
1. relatively tall, so it can't fit in some cig lighter when not enough vertical clearance
2. noisy, because it has fan, so it can be a problem for listening music not so loud
3. no on/off switch so it needs be unplugged if a car doesn't support of automatic switch off of cig lighter
4. fan moving parts make me think that it can break

Overall it's a good device and I'm mostly satisfied with it.
