Xantrex Technologies XPower Micro 175-Watt Inverter #851-0178 
2008-06-28
We purchased this so we could use our laptops on the trip to Disney and back. It worked just fine- cord was long enough that it even reached the back seat of the mini-van. Had no trouble at all. Part that sticks out from your lighter space a little bulky, but other than that wouldn't change anything.
Great product, expect fan noise 
2008-06-05
I've been using my inverter, problem-free, for several weeks. I keep it in my work bag, and use it to power a laptop when I'm on the go. I bought this after reading the reviews, so I knew to expect fan noise. It's sort of like having your car A/C on. Other than that, I can't think of anything negative to say about it. You plug it in and it works. Pretty simple.
Convenience during travel...stay connected 2008-04-27
We used this inverter while traveling on vacation by car. We were able to power up and stay connected to our laptop computer. Great convenience to be able to check for hotels and area attractions without having to leave the car. I would highly recommend this Xantrex Micro 175w inverter. Never heated up. Noise was minimal. Not one complaint to report. We used it, literally, for hours and hours at a time. Even charged up our cell phone by plugging the wall charger into this inverter while in the car. I love it!
amazing product 2008-03-18
I bought this item for emergency purposes. I dont check my cellphone if it is fully charged or not and I fell confident that I can use my cellphone ( including my laptop or portable DVD player) anywhere, everywhere I want it.
Excellent 2008-01-16
I bought it to power a 13 inch TV for a tailgate. It worked great. Also, instead of buying a unique car adapter for each product, you can now use this product.
Excelent! 2007-12-09
The Xantrex Technologies XPower Micro 175-watt inverter transforms your vehicle's electricity so you can power your electronic devices while on the road. Compact and lightweight, it simply plugs into the 12-volt DC outlet in your vehicle to power cell phones, camcorders, small portable stereos, laptop computers, 13-inch TVs, portable work lights, and more. It includes an automatic shutdown feature to protect against overload, over-heating, and high/low battery condition. This durable plastic unit is just 1.9-by-2.9-by-4.8 inches in size and weighs 0.38 pounds. It is covered by a 1-year warranty.
Solid Product 2007-11-29
-Solid Construction
-Small Size footprint
-Robust design, has fan for reliability
Wish it had a power switch instead of unplugging to turn off
Broke in less than 30min 
2007-11-03
I bought this thing to charge electronics. It worked for less than 30min. The light comes on and the (loud) fan spins up, but no current comes out of the 110 plug. Nothing I plug into receives any current. I've tried in several 12volt plugs, but it's definitely dead.
Xantrex 175 watt inverter 2007-10-28
The inverter works well in my vehicle. My only complaint is the noise level that the inverter creates. Sometimes it's very quiet but when I hit rough road it becomes noisey.
Nice and Convienient 2007-10-17
So far, This has been a wonderful product, it is nice and compact, and keeps the laptop running on long car trips, which we take often.
