Power Inverter

Travelling for more than 3 hours can be quite a drag and could lead you to boredom because you cannot sleep long. Thanks to the creator of Power Inverter. Power Inverter works by plugging it into your car’s cigarette lighter. With that, you can power up anything in between 220-240V. And if you are worried about safety, it has a warning device where you will be forewarned of overheating, overloading and or if the battery is low.

 Features

  • A portable power inverter for in-car use.
  • By plugging the Inverter into the car’s cigarette lighter you can power standard 220-240V UK appliances.
  • A 200 Watt continuous power.
  • A 400 Watt peak power.
  • A ‘Battery Low’ pre-alarm.
  • An ‘Overheat’ pre-alarm.
  • An ‘Overload’ pre-alarm.
  • Overload protection.
  • Suitable for ages 17 years+.
  • Size: 16 x 10.5 x 6cm.

  11. Yes, it’s available here in the Philippines. I had mine 15 years ago & it’s still working. It used to be cheap as (DIY kits), now it’s expensive. Alexan (most SM have them) sells them. A 300W ready to use inverter sells for P2,700 I think & they have choices from 150W-2000W (I’m not so sure). They also have kits but If your not into electronics, don’t try it. Might as well buy the finished product.

    I’m still looking for a cheaper one.. :)

  12. Has anyone tried the one at ebay? They are cheap but are they sturdy & safe? The heatsinks seems not enough to dissipate the heat.. The price is tempting.. :)
