I second or 3rd this... I have a 175 watt and a 300 watt inverter... the 300 can NOT run my laptop... it will charge it (takes a good while) But it will NOT run and charge it at the same time..... 3 mins into running the fans kicks in ..less than 5 mins the alarm goes off and it shuts down. The 175 watt one, with no fan would run my old laptop for hours. The New one... will NOT run my new bigger laptop .. The power brick says ... 120 watts ... go figure?.. my .02 worth... get a min 750watt inverter... if you're doing anything more than charging your cell phone or small camera batterys. >>Date: Thu, 1 Dec 2005 15:43:33 +0000 >From: Dave Vickery <davevickery@HOTMAIL.COM> >Subject: Re: Inverter at Radio Shack >>WalMart Sells Black & Decker 750 Watt (peak 1500) for 49.99. 300 Watts is not enough. |
