I purchased the Cobra CPI 480 to power my computer, printer, hot box and charge various walkie talkies and recharge power tool batteries. It is the best charger I have purchased. It has never let me down and the ease of installation made the purchase even sweeter. It took ten minutes to hook it directly to my truck battery and the compact size allowed me to fit it at arms reach for easy on/off situations. The cooling fan keeps the unit charging all day. I work from my "office" truck.
