Save your money
My experience is similar to Jonathans. This unit is a piece of junk. I had a similarly rated inverter for several years (I have forgotten the make and model) and it worked perfectly until it was stolen from my car. The FIRST TIME I used this one, with a Dell laptop power supply (rated 90 watts continuous) connected, after about 4 hours use, it began screaming at me with its built in audible alarm. It screams whenever it is turned on, with or without anything plugged in, load or no load. Maybe I will tear it apart for the alarm. THAT seems to work just fine!
Great Product
This is a great converter. It powers my macbook without any problems. It is a little louder than I imagined, but nothing that bothers me, and I can't really hear it when the car stereo is on. Overall great product, great price, and it also has the usb charging for a bonus.
Sporadic performance
I have had this unit (the 0900-73 200W) for about 3 months. I bought it after my Radio Shack inverter died after about 5 years of use powering an XBox and TV in our van for many, many 5+hour trips (and it was only rated at 140W). So, I picked this one up (since it was cheap...) and it worked on our first trip just fine, and now just blows the fuse in any vehicle when I plug anything into it. The power output is intermittent. I have a light on my Dell laptop powercord that lights up when it has power. Thatlight does not come on reliably when using this inverter, indicating the the Powerline is not outputting power. When the light does eventually come on, the fuse in my car blows immediately. I am reluctant to plug it back in, and am going to go with a different brand (likely back to radio shack). Also, the internal beeper keeps going off with or without anything plugged into it, and regardless of whether it is actually outputting any power.
Buy a differnt brand/model
Like others have said, this model is not reliable. It worked great while it worked, but after using it a few times is sounded an alarm and blew a fuse in my truck. After I replaced the fuse and plugged it back in, smoke poored out of it. It died a misserable death as its guts shorted out. There are other brands in the same price range that are much better quality. Skip this one and buy something else.
didnt fit!!
I purchased this at Walmart and was excited to use it over the weekend at the lake. unpacked it at the lake and was very disappointed because it would not fit either power outlet of my 2000 Ford F-150. Returned it no problem.
