I was looking for a product like this to power a rechargeable aerobed pump which I’m converting so I can run it directly from my wall outlet. I want to power it from the wall outlet because the battery no longer holds sufficient charge to power the pump. I came across this product and was surprised that it had a 5.8A ouptut rating at this price. I started to look around the web and came across this site ([...]) where it is listed as 1.8A. I couldn’t find the manufacturers site but 1.8A is probably more accurate for this item. This would explain the problems posted with powering certain equipment. Bummer. Looks like my search continues

I use it to listen to my DC Sirius radio through my home stereo. It works great. The only thing I wish it had is an on/off switch. I have to unplug it to turn it off.

So far this little unit has proven itself for my uses. Saved me a bundle of money because instead of having to buy a separate home docking kit for my satellite radio I can use the car adapter and plug it into this, plug the line out of the satradio into my stereo and I’m set!

I recently bought this converter to run a solid state cooler. When I first plugged it in, everything worked fine. When we got to our destination, it would not work. I discovered that you need to plug in the AC cord first and then plug in the device you wish to power with it. Apparently the circuit does not like having a load on it when it first powers up.
The good:
The converter seems to have no problem powering a cooler.
It runs relatively cool but make sure you leave room for all the ventilation slots to breathe.
The bad:
You really need to plug in the AC cord first. The little instruction sheet that came with it said nothing about this.
If I had designed this converter, I would have included some indicator LEDs to let you know the unit is working or why it’s not working.
I would buy this product again and would recommend it to others for powering 12 VDC items that draw less than the specified output current.
