BESTEK 200W Power Inverter DC 12V to AC 230V 240V Dual Socket Car Voltage Converter Transformer with 4 USB Car ChargerClimatePartner certified

I absolutely love this. Quick & convenient for items that need a boost, charge or run. Best value ever for such an item. Well impressed

Being as I have to do a lot of work whilst travelling, there are occasions when I need to use my MacBook and the battery isn’t going to last the duration, so I needed something to assist me when a wall power socket isn’t available.This item is ideal and worked perfectly to allow me to spend 4 hours parked up in an area where I could not access a regular power supply and powered my MacBook to allow me to carry on with business as usual.It simply plugged in to my power supply (cigarette lighter) in the car and charged my MacBook.It has a switch on the side to power it on and also a little light which indicates when there’s power. It has 2 USB ports also which come in handy.Someone else reviewed theirs and said the power sockets were a loose fit - I can report that mine has no such problem and fitted very well with no risk of loose connections or the plug being dislodged - quite the opposite infact. It was a very secure fit that required a bit of a tug to separate the plug from the socket.It is a reasonably sized, light weight bit of kit which will fit in my glove box, under my seat, pocket on the back of my seat, door pocket or even in the pocket in the centre console.Would highly recommend to anyone who travels and needs to have a power supply handy.FYI this will not power hair straighteners and will likely blow the fuse in the car, so be sure to only use it for low powered things.

Arrived quickly, well packaged and seems like good quality. I have tested it on a few items and seems to work well. Good value item. Reason for 4 star is the cable is quite short. Would be nice to extend to back of car/van without the need for further adapters.

I actually purchased this 2 years ago, how time has flown in, it was as an emergency back up in case of a power cut and for car or travelling use, I already have a small single socket 100w inverter that has been brilliant but I wanted more power and sockets, I have only started using it now and must say it's impressive, I see some reviews state the fan is a bit noisy but I find it to be very quiet even with no other sound to mask it. It's been working perfectly for two months with daily use. I just started using the USB sockets today and found it's great that you don't have to press the on switch as they are always live, the switch is only to turn on the sockets, I hadn't bothered reading the instructions lol. The price is about the same as 2 years ago and I have now noticed other brands for about £5 cheaper that have less USB sockets but one is USB-C PD20w so a bit more advanced. Happy with the purchase for my current needs.

Used on various devices rated from 50-140watts, all well below the 200watt sustained and 250watt spike load rating of this inverter. The inverter would work for short periods before turning itself off becoming concerning hot and smelling like burning when using lower power devices. When using a 140watt battery charge for some power tools it would work for about 30 seconds before again becoming concerningly hot and going into a power protection mode even though the charger is well below 200watts and I've tested the charger to confirm that's all it draws when plugged into the wall too.The device is very cheap and hollow, thin brittle plastic makes up most of it, the plugs are weirdly stiff to plug into and there's no screw mount holes or anything so I guess they assume most people are just leaving it on the floor somewhere?Not a product I'd recommend based on it becoming dangerously hot or not working at all, smelling like burning plastic, being very cheaply and poorly made and often not working at all. The 200watt sustained load claim is clearly false
