    I will probably use it some day. It is just one of those things unnecessary that you have to buy when it is cheap.

    Paid for expedited shipping for delivery in time for a long road trip. Delivery was late and had to live without. Reliability of delivery from Amazon seems to be slipping big time.

    Works great, I’m keeping it in my car to charge my computer and phone while driving. I wanted to hook it up to a solar panel, but it drew too much energy and I couldn’t charge anything up off of it. Slightly disappointed there.

    We purchased this so we could use our laptops on the trip to Disney and back. It worked just fine- cord was long enough that it even reached the back seat of the mini-van. Had no trouble at all. Part that sticks out from your lighter space a little bulky, but other than that wouldn’t change anything.
