 warning about motorola phones June 24, 2008
The product has a USB port but it is not compatible with my Motorola phone, the phone says unauthorized power supply and disconnects.
Works with ipods but I think the Motorola expects a "smart" usb port it can talk to and this must not be one.

Got this for a road trip from San Diego to LA to charge up my cellphone. It worked great at the beginning.
After one hour into driving, my cellphone started making noise indicating the power was connected/disconnected. Unplugging and replugging the charger made the symptom went away for just a brief moment. It seems like the power went on and off repeatedly. I am not sure if this was caused by the inverter or the cellphone charger, but I've never had any problem when the charger was connected to the wall directly.
As noted in other reviews, the power indicator is not bright enough to tell if the unit is on. This is especially true when driving under the hot sun. And it gets really hot when operating.

Be aware that Xantrex has changed the design of the product and is a lot smaller and is not as picture. It also DOES NOT have the airline adapter as stated in the description. It now only includes a cigarette plug and a car battery clamp. So if you need this product for in airplane use, the redsigned product will not meet your needs. I was able to scavenge an airline adapter from a Xantrex inverter I had.
 Amazing product April 21, 2008
This is a cool product, so far I don't have any problems with this. It charges my Iphone, and any other small units. I haven't tried this in a long drive yet but I'll give you guys an update when I drive from NY to TX this summer. Well, so far so good!
Cons: The only thing I notice is that you can't really tell if it's "on" since the "ON" button's light is unnoticeable, it is just useless unless you try to wrap your hands around it to dim the area. BUt I still would recommend it to anyone I know!

The power inverter we received was labeled with the name and model number of the one in the picture but did not look like the one in the picture (which is one we had before, loved, and used until it wore out over several years of much use). This must be a newer, updated model that we received but it is not very powerful, and the power cuts in and out, it gets hot to the touch in just a few minutes of (proper) use and is not worth the money. Keep shopping!!
