    I use
    $50 BESTEK 300Watt Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter Car Adapter DC 12V to AC 110V with 4.2A Dual Smart USB Ports
    this one. It works well enough. Charges all my electronics. I've used a soldering iron with it. Won't power my heatgun or a hairdryer tho.

    I wanted a fancy pure some wave one, but am not running anything huge. I did snip off the cigarette plug and have it wired directly to my battery (with an inline fuse)

    Still in planning phase ...
    Love having inverters in my gear for various things. After researching a bit, decided to give one of these a shot. Wanted something that can be easily taken with me camping and not worry about draining my battery. 2000w inverter, wiring and controls all built into nice unit that gives 120v, 12v, and USB. All ready and wired up for deep cycle batter and solar panels you provide. Figure with this I can run small appliances when camping and eventually mount flexible 100w solar panels on hardshell RTT I plan on down the road.
