I love to take road trips and I haven't used this for those yet, but I also drive three and a half to four hours up north for the weekends to go skiing. In total thats almost eight hours of driving in a weekend. So far I have had this power converter for only one of those weekend ski trips but it did work great for me. I was able to keep my phone and laptop charged for the entire trip even when they were in use. Primarily I need my phone charged for road trips and for that reason I am really happy about the two usb outputs one works well to keep my old usb player charged and the 2 amp port acts as a fast charger for my phone which I use as a gps<br /><br />I remember having something like this in my family's car as a child it was about three times the size and didn't have the usb ports. It also didn't have a fan and would overheat all of the time, I even almost burnt my foot on it once after the beach. With the built in fan the inverter runs cool and the fan is very quiet basically inaudible when driving on the highway. Overall I like this product for its simple well built design that makes road trips easier and fun (I am very tempted to get a hot plate to use with this). The cord could be a bit short for larger vehicles like a van or suv, but in my small car it had more than enough range.<br />I was offered this product at a promotional price in order to test and review it. My experience does not reflect that of other reviewers or the manufacturer. My rating is honest and unbiased.
