   I am able to power my telescope, laptop, and Canon Eos for hours, and have still never gone below 3/4 charge. I have learned the key to success though, is the unit must remain on the charger when stored. They clearly warn you to charge at least monthly. Only negative is recharge takes a very long time (normally overnight. Wish it had 1 more cigarette adapter.

   I use this unit to power my laptop, printer, wireless router, etc. I use it mainly for business because I always need a power outlet where one is not available. I bought two of these and will probably buy more!

   This is a great product. Do yourself a favor, don’t bother with the included charger. Buy a BatteryMinder desulphating conditioning charger with a cigerette adapter. You can leave it plugged in continuously and the battery will be maintained in peak condition. Also, the “hum” mentioned by another reviewer is the cooling fan for the inverter which comes on during high loads.

   We are crafters who travel to many out door shows where there is no electric. This unit lets us run 4 welcome lamps with C7 bulbs for 8 hours at a time. It is quiet and small. Perfect to hide under a table in our craft tent. Just keep in mind that it must be recharged at night to be able to use the next day.

   I love this. I have 2 of them.
   
   Works great for running fans, electric blankets, small appls when we are out camping without electric.

   I am blind and I want to no if the product is included with a wall charger or just the car charger? Also, about how long can you get out of this product if you are just running a lap top?

   First I charged it and it took 8 hours. Tried then to run a house fan and it worked for about 5 hours, mmmm. Not really what I expected.
   
   Then it said charge so this time it charged for about 15 hours or a little more. Tried another fan and wow it was still going after 16 hours.. Then recharged for 12hours and it was ready again.
   
   I am a arts and crafts vendor and this is perfect to power a laptop, printer and a fan. So good to have the inverter with the whole package.
   
   I’m going to order another one.

   I just needed some power to blow up three 18 inch high queen size mattresses while camping. This device worked like a charm. I even blew all three up a bit more the next day and the compressor still said it had full power. I’m very pleased.

   product is superb but for the cost, would expect some accessories (i.e air pump, etc). Probably can get similar item cheaper but otherwise unit is very sturdy.

    I love this portable power supply unit. I use it in a storage unit that has no electricity inside it, so it is pretty dark. I am able to use this power supply to plug in a regular lamp (and sometimes a fan) and do my work in my storage unit every day. It runs for about an hour a day, powering a stand up lamp, a small portable fan, and sometimes a charger for my iPhone. I bring it to the unit on Mondays and then take it home on Fridays to recharge it. I would estimate that I am getting about 5-7 hours of time running that lamp and fan, before it needs to be “refilled” with electricity.
