I used this inverter to keep my laptop, 2 cellphones and a 18v battery pack charged during an 8 day hunting trip. It performed flawlessly.
I wish it had come with a carry case to store it in when not in use but it did have a case for the battery connectors and the accessory plug. The cooling fan came on constantly but that is a small price to pay for the convenience of keeping
three thing s charged at a time! I won't leave home without!!!

Does not work

I've read reviews about the fan being very loud. I've read reviews about operating multiple devices with no problems. Mine must be defective,I have experienced the exact opposite. The fan is barely audible...Read complete review

I've read reviews about the fan being very loud. I've read reviews about operating multiple devices with no problems. Mine must be defective,I have experienced the exact opposite. The fan is barely audible when held to my ear. My hair clipper runs at greatly reduced speed, laptop not at all, and my small drill runs slowly for a short time then the red light comes on & the inverter shuts down. I don't know if I should get a refund & try a different brand, or (because of all the positive reviews) exchange it & try again

    Comments about Peak 400 Watt Tailgate Inverter Max:

    I used this invertor after a power outage in Northern Michigan. It was connected to a 12v deep cycle marine battery and worked great for about 4 hours. When I unplugged a small radio it blew the 40amp bayonet fuse. As soon as I would try to plug in another fuse(with nothing plugged in) it would blow the fuse again. So I disconnected it from the battery changed the fuse, re-connected to the battery and it blew it again. Unfortunately my first use was after the 90 day warranty and now I have land fill material.

    Rebate scam

    Comments about Peak 400 Watt Tailgate Inverter Max:

    Peak doesn't honor rebates. I bought two inverters and sent the rebates in. Two months later and they have no evidence on their web site. Sent an inquiry. No response. Peak rebates are a SCAM. Don't sucker for it.

      Rebate is a trap

      By LeOlney

      from Olney, Maryland

      Comments about Peak 400 Watt Tailgate Inverter Max:

      The product works great. However, I cannot check my rebate status. Be careful when you buy a rebate product from Advance Auto parts. It is a trap. I went to the website [@] many times to check my rebate and never get it.

        Comments about Peak 400 Watt Tailgate Inverter Max:

        The unit is fairly large but that is to be expected. It is quiet compared to other converters i have used. Most converters have a fan running all the time to keep them cool. The fan on this unit turns on only when necessary and for short periods of time. I like that it has the option of using the included cigarette lighter adapter or being hooked directly to the battery.
