Simply by plugging this inverter into your car's cigarette lighter or connecting it to a 12V battery (leads supplied) you can run a small TV, CD player, shaver, mobile phone or laptop wherever you are!
It even has a USB port so you can use your laptop in the car.
Make sure you buy the right inverter!
The following devices will normally not work with modified
sine wave inverters:
Laser printers, photocopiers,
magneto-optical hard drives
Some laptop computers
Some fluorescent lights with
electronic ballasts
Power tools employing "solid
state" power or variable speed control
Some battery chargers for cordless
tools
Digital clocks with radios
Fridges and freezers.
To run them, you will
generally need a Pure Sine Wave
inverter that delivers household quality power.

Which do you need - Modified Sine Wave or Pure Sine Wave???
Inverter sine wave quality affects the ability of the inverter to run particular electrical appliances.
Appliances that have an electronic circuit (i.e. it has a digital readout somewhere on it) require a true sine wave inverter to run as the modified sine wave inverter provides only intermittent cycles or waves of power when such appliances need continuous power to maintain their digital functions.
Many electronic appliances produced today use sophisticated technology that requires a true sine wave inverter to start or run. Examples are computers, laser printers, some charging devices for mobile phones or power tools, and modern washing machines.
Though many laptops run directly from their own battery, even when connected to mains power, and should be able to run OK on a modified power inverter, it is probably safer as a laptop LDC inverter to use the true sine wave type.
So, in general, your microwave, stereo, small fridge, lights, DVD player – will all run just fine on modified sine wave. However, in the case of a microwave inverter, you’d need the pure sine inverter to keep its digital readout (e.g. clock) working properly.
