I was planning to buy Car charger for my two cell phones, Ipod, Digital Camera Charger,video camera charger; but cost for each of them was a big factor, then i got to know about black and decker inverter; It solved all of my problem. The price is quite reasonalble. Charges all of the device quite efficiently. Advise, it has low hissing sound; so if you are listening to soft music with your ipod connected, it might spoil the mood. Incase of Ipod first charge it

I bought one of these for a recent road trip to Yellowstone. When I plugged it in to the cigarette lighter, it did make a somewhat loud fan noise, but I didn't mind it very much and found that positioning (turning it on its side, or upside down) reduced the noise. However, after having my laptop plugged in for playing movies, the laptop died from a low battery--I figured it just wasn't powerful enough since my laptop draws 90W and the 100W on this inverter is a max value, vice sustained. So I next plugged in my cell phone charger, only to have my cell phone battery go completely dead a few hours later. I thought maybe the regular outlet plug wasn't working, so I tried charging my Blackberry using the USB port, and it too would not charge. Long story short, mine didn't work at all. I will be returning it soon and getting one with a higher max wattage.

I had this inverter but it was stolen out of my car and I am glad it was stolen. It was very loud. I would have to shift it around to get it to quiet down. I wish I had returned it before the time limit I had for returning it. You can find something a little quieter.
