REVIEW: BESTEK 500W Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter 12V DC to AC 110V

I am using a Bestek Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter ( https://amzn.to/3lf37DW ) to power my Xbox One S ( https://amzn.to/3hzEktc )and monitor in my car. It provides a continuous DC 12V to AC 110V power from the car’s 12 volt socket power. This should provide stable power to both devices.

Bestek Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter ( https://amzn.to/3lf37DW ) is very convenient and easy to use. It comes with extra fuses, 12 volt car socket plug wire ( 150 W) , and an alligator battery clamps (up to 500 W) . All you need to do is screw on the wires and with the nuts and turn on the unit. The cooling fan noise is ok. The fan has been keeping the unit cool even during an hour of use.

With socket cable, 150 watt is the max rating. It came with direct connects to the car 12 volt battery for full 500 watt power. I normally use a compact 150 W power inverter ( https://amzn.to/3kc25cp ) while working in my car with a laptop, however decided to get a Pure Sine Wave inverter as the Xbox is not battery powered like a laptop. There is fan noise from the inverter operation, but overall it runs pretty cool with both devices on.

Overall I see this device very useful when powering sensitive AC powered electronics in the car. I normally play for about 30 -1.5 hours while the car is ON and charging. I have to be mindful if the car is charging the 12 volt battery and down want to drain it.

How to Setup XBOX in the CAR!

Quick how to video on setting up your XBOX or other game console to play in your car. This is great if you spend a lot of time in your car waiting for your next class, working in your car, or just charging your plug in electric vehicle.

This can be setup in less than 5 minutes to start playing and is easily taken down when not in use. I only use this while parked for over 1 – 2 hours while my car is ON and charging. I have a Honda Clarity Plugin with a huge back seat .

A few weeks ago I added 13 inch 1080P monitor ( https://amzn.to/3kakZAG) with USB C and HDMI inputs so I can work and watch movies on my dash. It works with the Xbox, Smart phone , and laptop computers. I had it on my dashboard, but I wanted it in a more comfortable viewing position than the center console so I decided to mount the monitor back of the passenger seat so it will be in front of me when in the rear seats.

I am using an adjustable large tablet articulating arm ( https://amzn.to/3hsutFm ) attaches to the passenger seat head rest posts so I can position the monitor right behind the seat or near the center of the spacious back seat to share with friends. The tilt of the monitor arm is adjustable as well.

To power my Xbox One S ( https://amzn.to/3hzEktc )and monitor, I am using a Bestek Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter ( https://amzn.to/3lf37DW ) DC 12V to AC 110V to plug into the car’s 12 volt power. This should provide stable power to both devices. With socket cable, 150 watt is the max rating. It came with direct connects to the car 12 volt battery for full 500 watt power.

I normally use a compact 150 W power inverter ( https://amzn.to/3kc25cp ) while working in my car with a laptop, however decided to get a Pure Sign Wave inverter as the Xbox is not battery powered like a laptop. There is fan noise from the inverter operation, but overall it runs pretty cool with both devices on.

If by myself in the back seat I don’t mind the Xbox and Inverter in the opposite foot well. If I have company, I may decide to put the Xbox and inverter in the front seat foot well.

Overall I see this as a fun project. It’s not a permanent addition to the car and is quick to setup and take down when you are finished. I normally play for about 30 -1.5 hours while the car is ON and charging. I have to be mindful if the car is charging the 12 volt battery and down want to drain it.

How To: WATCH MOVIES while Parking – Large Display – No Tools Needed!

If you want to watch movies in a large screen in your car and dont want to modify your car, then this video is for you. I will be adding a 13.3 inch 1080P Monitor with USB C and HDMI ( https://amzn.to/3kakZAG ) onto my car. There are larger sizes displays ini 15 and 16 inches ( https://amzn.to/3lmzKj1 ) however I prefer the 13 is a good compact size can be placed in my laptop bag with my laptop as an external monitor when traveling.

The Kogoda 13.3 Inch External Monitor (https://amzn.to/3kakZAG ) is an IPS Full HD 1080P external laptop monitor . It has USB C inputs for late model smart phones and laptops to use as an external monitor. It has a mini HDMI input. Connection is fast and easy and starts up in less a few seconds. Simply connect the USB power and one of the signal cables.

Its powered by USB C 5 volt at 1.5 – 2A. It comes with a wall power supply, but many USB chargers can output 2A now and so can my car’s built in USB charge port. Getting a 12v socket charge port is easy I use a Anker car charger ( https://amzn.to/3CaPkVS ).

It comes with a plastic cover and fold out stand. The cover is held by magnets so you may want to be careful when handling magnetic hard drives, credit cards, and other sensitive items.

I normally work in my car with my laptop or smart phone so if you are planning to use a bigger screen this is also helpful. You can ofcourse watch movies with this display. It is bright enough to use when the car is parked in the shade or in the sun.

Overall it has been a great addition to my car entertainment while parked. I just set it on my dash board and play a movie while waiting an hour for my car to charge or when waiting in the car. It doesnt require taking apart the car or voiding any warranties. It also uses very little energy so it doesnt impact my car battery much.
