PowerDrive PD300 Direct 300W Power Inverter

I was just thinking I've had this thing for seven years and it's still working so I should go write a review. Total abuse and constant use and never failed.

This PD300 power inverter is no longer made by the company and had not been made for a while. They therefore do not have any information on it on their website. This inverter can ONLY be used for very low energy consumption items like cell phones and tablets. It only inverts DC power (like from a car battery) to ac power. It is not a back up recharge station.

Drove a semi every night and used this every night for at least 3 hours a night never had a problem

I bought one of these on a road trip so my children could play video games in the car. The Inverter worked for about 2 hours and stopped working. The rub? I thought it was a faulty unit so I bought another one at the next tuck stop and it only worked for about 5 minutes. A complete waste of money.

Practically worthless. Supposed to be a 300 watt inverter. I connected a 100 watt lightbulb to it and it won't run for even 45 seconds before auto-shutoff. Takes longer to reset that it actually provided power. Guess it might be okay for running a USB charger, but it's got USB ports built-in. Oh wait, I could just plug a USB charger into my lighter socket.

Bought this to run my laptop on a road trip, it isn't work. I even connected it to a new battery, got a minute of charge then it stopped working again.
