Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - impressive little inverter
Charges my Thinkpad T60 with 9-cell battery without a problem. Very small, perhaps a little larger than a deck of playing cards. Will easily fit in a glove compartment. Whisper quiet. I can only hear its fan if I hold the inverter up to my ear. The membrane on/off switch with dual-color LEDs is a nice touch. The shiny plastic case is a fingerprint magnet. Construction is light but durable. The side panel with AC and USB plugs is robust metal. Mine is well put together. I think I'm going ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Disappointed by product.
I too bought the unit based on the vendors reputation. It is small and powered my Dell D600 laptop without a problem using the battery adapter, but it got pleasantly warm. But there were some issues.

1. You must press a button to power it on and the small blue LED is very hard to see. If the power is interrupted, you've got to press the button to turn it on again. I'd prefer a slide or rocker switch for always on if powered.

2. The cigarette adapter didn't stay securely ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Accessible power on the road
Finally purchased an inverter to power a laptop and to recharge various battery powered devices on the road. The Xantrex was a nice small unit with enough oomph to charge batteries and run my laptop. This device fits easily in my glove box when not in use.

I have already used the device several times and have been quite happy with it.

My only complaint, I wish the cord that connects the unit to the lighter port was longer so the device could sit on the floor. Other than ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - bad item, it crapped out
Xantrex Technologies XPower Pocket Mobile Power Source 175-Watt Inverter #813-0291

I used this product for about 10 days and then it stopped working, it would overheat and making a high pitched beeping noise with no power output. I would invest in a higher quality inverter, I wish I never wasted my money.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - It failed and I goofed
Xantrex Technologies XPower Pocket Mobile Power Source 175-Watt Inverter #813-0291 It totally pooped out and failed after only a few months occasional use. It worked fairly well on some things like 85 watt curling iron and cellphone charger. It would recharge the laptop but struggled to power the laptop if the laptop battery was low. This despite the very low power demand rating on the laptop.

Recently on a long trip it just wouldn't work any more. We looked it over, tried a different cord ... Read More

The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and she will have a British Captain and Officers.   In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.

Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000 vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery  in 2006.   Enjoy a Cruise on Queen Victoria.  The lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.

No cruise schedules have yet been announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008.
