Tools and Hardware Reviews of Whistler PI-400W 400 Watt Power Inverter
Customer Review: Very Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this device after years of having a much lower power model work great and this one had good reviews.
For lower power applications it has worked weeks flawlessly. Today I finally needed to use it for what I purchased it for. Startup watts on my device is 380 watts and continuous power is around 200. Well under the 800 watt peak of this unit. It died on within a second. Thinking the fuse had blown, I popped it out and it isn't. The unit itself is blown. I hope I'm within the return period and if they don't replace this one, it will be my last purchase of one of their products.
Customer Review: Useful

it works fine, however he/she is careful with the battery of their vehicle you can discharge since without previous warning. I recommend while it is used to light the vehicle like minimum every 2 hours. when it uses my laptop with the inverter to weigh that I work he/she notices that a sharp noise takes place in the inverter and I cause myself since clearly curiosity the laptop this below the load support that the inverter offers me. In general I find a good product to a good price and I recommend it.Customer Review: Works fine!

I purchased this product to blow up an air mattress while out camping at Cook Forest, PA. It worked fine with the two large air mattresses. It does state to not use it to charge devices such as cell phones. I used it for my cell phone and it did charge it but the phone started to act up a little. The phone is working fine now so I'm not sure if the problem came from the inverter or not.Customer Review: Great product for plugging electronic devices into your car

I bought this so I could plug my laptops, phone chargers, portable shaver, etc. into a 3-prong receptacle in my 2010 Camry. The unit makes a little noise, but you can barely hear it if the heat/AC fan is on low or the radio is on. I've been using this on an as-needed basis for months now and have never had any issues. Excellent product for my purposes!!!Customer Review: Plenty of power

Plenty of power to power a 13 inch crt TV in my semi truck with just a cigarette lighter plug.Only drawback is at startup my truck must be running to turn the TV on.After that it has plenty of power and i can turn off the engine.Perhaps i have to hook it up directly to the batteries to get more power ,which i will be doing with the supplied cable
