I tried one of those power inverters and it didn't work with my laptop on an AA 757. I've been using this thing for the past 2 years

Unlike an igo, it does not replace your power cord, so you'll have a little pile of cords at your feet. But it works flawlessly and is almost as cheap as the inverter you're considering
