View larger. | Portable Electrical Power Stowed in Your Car
The Wagan 200-Watt Power Dome NX power supply is an emergency and outdoor companion that proves its worth in virtually any situation you can think of where you need electrical power while on the road (and maybe a few you had not thought of yet). Powered by a high-grade sealed lead acid battery and including built-in jumper cables and alligator clamps, it can be used to jump-start your car engine in the event of a dead battery, avoiding the need to rely on help from other motorists or towing services. Its powerful onboard air compressor, with easy to read pressure gauge, has the strength to inflate everything from the largest of tires, to sports equipment, floatation devices and air mattresses when you are by the water or when camping. And with a powerful, yet energy efficient built-in LED light, it has the ability to light up the night in the event of a road side emergency or power outage.
 Jumper cables, LED light and air compressor in one unit.

Simply plug appliances, tools, lights or other devices into the Power Dome's two built-in AC power outlets, flip the power switch, and you have instant power without the roar of a generator. The Power Dome NX can also be counted on to conveniently supply power to personal devices like laptops, MP3 players and cell phones through its cigarette lighter adapter, or built-in USB port. It even contains an AM/FM radio, with a line-in port (cables sold separately) to connect audio devices to the radio's speakers through an auxiliary channel, and a compartment to store small miscellaneous items. Built with Safety in Mind
The Power Dome NX is designed with the safety of the user and their electrical devices in mind. Each power output conduit of the Power Dome NX, contains its own separate on/off power switch, providing for maximum safety. This includes the current flowing from the jumper cables, allowing user to place clips on the appropriate battery terminal before letting the power flow, for spark-free charging. The unit also provides overload and short circuit protection.

 GREAT LITTLE ALL IN ONE August 3, 2010
R. Greenbaum
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I purchased this from Amazon on a whim during a lightening sale. My wife was understandably skeptical, as it appeared I had bought an expensive radio/tire pump.
She was readying the car for a long road trip and by accident left the car on. Battery was quite dead. We own a Prius and one of the quirks is that if the car is jumped with too much power it resets the computer and the windows don't work right. We experienced that a few years ago when a friend jumped our car.
The Wagan was fresh out of the box (we had only gotten it the day before). Fully charged and ready to go. I went outside, hooked up the Wagan to the two posts in the fuse box and we started the car. Less than five minutes from learning the car battery was dead to having it run again. That was because I had to go in the house and get the charger...
Suffice to say, the Wagan is kept in the car all the time-even when space is a premium. We know that if we get a flat, the unit can inflate the tire long enough to get to safety.
The flashlight is bright and even though as the other reviewer states the doors are flimsy, but we are not rough with it.
We haven't used it as such but it will power lights for a few hours while car camping.
It can be used for charging any electrical devices or even running a shaver! They thought of everything and if there is any deficiency, it is that there's almost too much to use it for.
We like this mobile power unit and recommend it to anyone owning a vehicle dependent on electricity to start.
Bottom Line:
WE FEEL MUCH SAFER WITH THE WAGAN ALONG!

I read a bunch of reviews before I purchased this product, And was very impressed! however I must have missed that ONE review that spoke about the compressor and the power check button. I used the compressor to inflate my tire on my 300 zx and the Damn thing started smoking!, "like it was about burning out." So me in my infinite wisdom turned it off. I then checked the power by pushing the power button and it broke!, "what the hell", I though. Now I had this this thing for about two months and only used it once. So be very careful and make sure you read all the reviews before you purchase it.
OK, But flimsy storage doors February 1, 2010

I believe this item is a bit over priced for what you get (buyer beware) but the most annoying problem is the flimsy storage compartment doors. They look like they will break if I open them 20 times or more. The rest is very well built and should hold up but the weak point is those doors and you will have to open them as they contain the charger, air hose and other that you will use.
Works as advertised, I have not had to jump start a car but all else is good. One neat feature is the radio as many of these do not feature a radio ( great for the garage).
Would have given 4 to 5 stars if the doors where build more solid.

Ordered as Father's Day present. Arrived poorly packed, item damaged and not working. One star because if it had worked, the design features were well thought out.
