This Belkin inverter is much louder than the 140 watt inverter (which is difficult to hear at all). You can easily drowned out the noise with your radio but the pitch was a little too high for me.
The 300 watt unit is only a little bigger with a second outlet than the 140 watt inverter. It comes with an automotive type fuse (30 amp) which does seem to be very useful if your car lighter fuse is 10 or 15 amp.
I purchased the Belkin AC power converter for my cross country trip from california to virginia. I am half way done with the trip and the power converter has worked extremely well. I am able to work on my laptop while my wife drives and the kids watch their portable dvd player in the back. This was a great purchase and I am also able to save by not having to purchase separate car chargers for my cell phones, they just plug into the power converter.
We bought this item so that we could use our laptop in the car and also to be able to plug in more items in our RV. I like that it has two outlets.
Some people have said it was “loud” but I didn’t understand that at all. Yes, there is a quiet “whirring” sound from the fan, but if you’re driving down a highway or have the radio on low, you’d never hear the fan.
I think it was a good purchase. Worth the money and I’d recommend it to a friend.
