4 out of 5 stars Everything I need   December 30, 2008
This is a fantastic unit and the price is on par with other brand units.

Pros:
It has a charge indicator, FM/AM radio with aux. audio input jack as well as a USB power supply port for those suckers who own an IPOD, the LED light is bright enough, the presence of an air compressor is a plus and the hose is a decent length but doesn't appear so at first glance, 2 AC outlets as well as 1 DC outlet should provide ample space to plug in anything, and of course the jump cables for car starting which, like the air hose, is longer than it appears in the picture (about 2.5 feet)

The reason I gave it only 4 stars:
the power switch for the AC outlets on mine is a 2 stage switch, meaning it has off, 1, and 2 settings. The 1 does nothing and the 2 powers the outlets. Based upon the pictures, it is clear that a simple ON/OFF switch was meant to be there and probably is in most units but for whatever reason, mine has a different one (no biggie). The air compressor works fine but I have a problem with the fact the dial goes to 260psi. Who is pumping that much air into something? Because of that, I need to look closely when I am filling tires because the distance from 0-35/40 is very small. The tips for the air hose come loose so they will get tossed or lost easily. Lastly, the speaker for the radio is not the greatest, it would have been nice to have a built-in amp and an audio out but i guess this thing can only do so much.

Overall, it is a great buy and should do the job well for most people.

This compact and portable power supply & air compressor is ideal for home use! There are many applications this item can be used for! I would buy another one just to have around. They are very affordable.


5 out of 5 stars Wagan 400 Watt usage history.   October 19, 2008
This unit is a high quality unit. I am very pleased as to how well it is made. It does everything that I expected of it and more. I don't need a radio or a compressor but it is there and it works well. I probably will order a higher wattage unit from Wagan which does not have all the frills.

I should have known it was made in China. It worked to jump start a car. The radio isn't worth much, and the air compressor got hot real quick. I haven't used its full power to know its maximum capability yet.

I use this product on my sailboat. It powers things like wash down water pumps and many other small appliances. I never leave the dock without it.
