Tripp Lite 375W Car Cigarette Lighter Plug Power Inverter with 2 Outlets, Auto Inverter
Vehicle direct-current power becomes standard household current the moment this inverter goes into the dashboard socket. It rests on a passenger seat or console during transit, giving small tools, test gear or field laptops a place to plug in. We built it around a metal case so it handles gravel roads, glove boxes and tool chests without cracking.

How this one is built
Machined metal housing
The casing takes the scrapes and drops common to work vans and service trucks. Plastic boxes give up when stepped on or tossed into an organizer bin, but this solid metal shell holds its form and shields internal components through hard travel.
Vehicle socket connection
Power comes through the standard auxiliary plug that fits car and truck lighter sockets. The plug seats firmly to maintain continuous electrical contact while the vehicle moves over rough road surfaces, feeding the internal circuitry without loose-fitting interruptions.
Standard alternating outlets
The face provides standard three-prong plugs for gear that usually needs a wall receptacle. You can plug in laptop supplies, battery chargers, or small diagnostic units right on the passenger seat without searching for dedicated low-voltage adapters.
Peak and continuous feed
The circuitry handles continuous electrical draw for steady work while accommodating the higher momentary draw required when small motors or power supplies first spin up. Built-in thermal regulation keeps internal heat moving out of the chassis during extended runs.
