Solid-state inverters tend not to work well on anything with more than a small electric motor in it. So angle grinding is probably out unless you get a generator. :-) For stuff like a laptop/AA battery charger/portable DVD player/etc. they work fine. A "better" solution would be to find power supplies for the equipment in question that run off of 12 volts. More efficient that way at least, though it'll cost more money. For the laptop and battery charger at least, solutions are easy to find. For the cheap solution, a $35 inverter will work just fine. :-) -Mat -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
