Pros & Cons
Pros
This inverter is perfect for our tailgating needs. It is fairly compact and easy to use. It's relatively easy to install even for those like me who are not especially handy.
It takes the 12vdc from the car battery and converts it into 110vac to plug things in to. It connects to your vehicle's battery in order to power two power plugs and one usb cable.

Competitiveness
This unit is powerful enough to charge 2 laptops as well as power any modern 120v devices i want to take with me.
The 1000w inverter is sort of on the lower end of their big inverters but i just don't have the room or use for a 3000w inverter.
