I know the practical output of many inverters is a bit lacking.

I had a black and decker one I bought from Wal-Mart for 50 bucks. It was rated at 450 watts continuous. I could power my electric drill no problem, even through a 100 foot extension cord.

However, it couldn't charge my laptop which has a power adapter rated at only around 200 watts.
