Has some limitations August 28, 2009

COMPRESSOR
I've used this to inflate the tires on my car and it works just as well as my last compressor. There's even a gauge to show what the tire pressure is as I'm inflating.
OUTLETS
I used this on a camping trip to power my vacuum via the 12V DC socket. I also used it to power my ASUS eeepc netbook via the 12V AC socket. That was no problem.
There are two 12V AC sockets, so my husband tried plugging his notebook computer in while I had my netbook in. The fan started blowing as soon as he was plugged in and eventually a loud alarm sounded. I thought it was too much for the battery to have both units plugged in. When my husband tried his notebook in without anything else connected, he got another loud alarm. He has a large, 17" notebook. It was just too much of a strain on the battery. My netbook never got the alarm by itself.
I was camping for three days and I used the battery for a few hours the first two days with my netbook. The last day, the battery read empty, but it still had enough juice to power the vacuum.
FLASHLIGHT
The flashlight uses LED lights. It's bright white light, brighter than the flashlights we had brought with us to the campground. The LED lights are arranged so that the output forms the shape of Mickey Mouse and the light is not even but rather forms rings with light and dark areas, but it was sufficient enough for me to navigate my way through darkness.
JUMPER CABLES
I am happy never to have needed these cables but I'm glad they are there. If I should even use them, I will come back to update the review.
CONCLUSION
I am happy with the performance of this product. Had I been my husband, who wanted to use it for his notebook computer, I wouldn't have been so impressed. It's a great product to keep in the trunk for emergencies. Just keep in mind that the battery does have its limitations.
Good 10 hour back-up May 25, 2009

The 300 Provides 10 hours of quiet, dependable back up for my Cpap machine which I need to sleep. No more lost sleep due to temporary power outages. I can go camping again! I might have purchased the 600 for it's extended service. I RECOMMEND IT.
So far so good ... August 18, 2009

I mainly bought this to be able to jump start my car (as I have had issues with the battery dying) and to pump up the tyres at home. I have not had a chance to test jump starting my car as the battery was recently replaced under warranty.
The compressor was also a must for me as the car manual recommends inflating the tyres when they are cold and I keep forgetting to inflate them at the petrol station (where they are always hot anyway). The compressor is quite loud and the dial is accurate enough to be able to get a good reading.
The initial charge was overnight so it can take a while but this is not a major issue for me.

I have not had this product very long and have used it only to inflate tires. It came fully charged and it is compact and easy to store. So far so good.

About a week after buying the product someone hit a pole on the main street at about 4:10 pm. Power was out - really out.
As it came to dusk I remembered that I'd bought thing and got it out. It provided over six hours of 120 v electricity to light a light that you could read by. Based on the power remaining lights I expect we could have 2 - 3 more hours of 120 v power.
Much better than candles.
