Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Cobra CPI 475 400 Watt Power InverterCustomer Review: Cobra 400-W power inverter Summary: 4 Stars
Very good product. Only design flaw is that the mounting braccket on the bottom is not wide enough, screwdriver is blocked by body of unit.
Customer Review: cobra inverter Summary: 4 Stars
Inverter is a good size for carrying and comes with its own case. Good product.
Customer Review: Keeps blowing fuses Summary: 3 Stars
I keep having to replace fuses inside the actual unit. Other than that, it works pretty good.
Customer Review: No reverse polarity protection as advertised Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this unit to power a CPAP machine for car camping. The unit advertising says that this unit has reverse polarity protection which is not true. Upon reading the manual it says that reversing the polarity will damage the unit. I stupidly installed the cable clamps on the wrong battery terminals and heard a pop and disconnected the unit. It was dead, waited a while to see if it would reset, nope. Opening up the unit I saw two fuses soldered to the main circuit board. Spend the extra money and get one with an external replaceable fuse.
Customer Review: Be aware of limitations Summary: 1 Stars
When I purchased this inverter, I was aware that if I needed to draw more than about 140 watts, that it must be directly connected to the battery, not plugged into a cigarette lighter outlet. However, I also found that if the inverter detects that the battery voltage is geting low, it sounds a loud continuous alarm which cannot be switched off and cannot be adjusted. This makes it nearly useless unless the battery is fully or nearly fully charged. Be aware.
