Mobile power inverter for 12 V vehicles

The CyberPower CPS160SU-DC plugs into a 12 V cigarette-lighter socket and delivers 120 V AC plus 5 V USB and 12 V DC outputs. It is built for drivers who need to run laptops, small tools or portable media players while on the road.

120 W continuous and 160 W peak output

The unit supplies up to 120 watts continuously and 160 watts peak from a 10.5 V to 15.5 V DC input limited to 10 A. Devices that draw more than 120 W continuously will trip the inverter, so it suits only low-power AC loads.

Requires a 12 V accessory outlet

A quick-release button swaps the supplied automobile and airline adapters, while the built-in DC socket keeps the original accessory port available. Automatic shutdown protects the vehicle battery and surge protection guards connected gear during engine start cycles.

Questions about this item

How much continuous power does the 160 W peak rating actually deliver to a laptop or small tool?

The inverter supplies 120 W continuously and 160 W peak, so a laptop or small tool drawing up to 120 W will run without interruption.

What does the 12 V DC cigarette-lighter input limit in practice?

The 10 A input fuse caps usable power at roughly 120 W, matching the continuous rating and preventing overload on the vehicle socket.

Will the 2-in-1 connector fit both my car socket and an airline seat power port?

Yes, the quick-release button lets you swap between the included automobile cigarette-lighter adapter and the airline seat adapter.
