LOVE THIS THING! I was able to charge my laptop and phone/ipad at the same time while traveling without any troubles. We only used it with the AC adapter, not directly attached to the car battery, although that is an option. I also only used this while the car was running to avoid draining my car battery. It has a built in fan that will turn it self on if it starts to get warm. I had no concerns with using this and will be taking it on all future road trips!
Nice inverter

I use this in my car in the back port. The only negative is that the power wires connecting to the inverter have somewhat exposed contacts as the "O" ring connectors on the + and - terminals on the rear of the unit. A slight risk of shorting if you're not aware of it. The plastic caps that hold them in place "shield" it mostly but it could be designed better. The inverter works great. It is silent, no annoying fan sounds at all. The overcurrent shutoff works, as I tried charging a large battery beyond its capacity. I recommend this product.
Suprisingly Robust

"As far as ""BUDGET"" options for a power inverter, emergency or daily use this thing is hard to beat. First Concern with this device was accidentally draining my battery, since I would be hard wiring it into my car, but the switch on the front is a true kill switch and will keep it from draining the battery. The Casing is sturdy and took a few limp test swings from my 12 oz hammer with little markings. The mounting Flanges are small and both ends are ""slide under"" styles but the Flange itself appears sturdy and held the unit firmly in place with just some Tech Screws."
Great portable power option!

I was recently seeking a portable power inverter for use in my vehicle as well as my travel trailer for when I go camping. I happened to find the Potek 500W Inverter here and opted to give it a shot based on the price and because it looked like it would get the job done. If you’re a camper or need an emergency power supply (110 – 125 VAC) when you’re on the go, then an inverter is what you need.
