The HD website showed the price at $199 and I gave up, but then.... I noticed the words just below the $199 price that said "See In-Store Clearance Price. When I clicked there the price was $50 !!!
The website said 2 in stock.
Went to the store, searched around and came up empty. Finally I asked a store employee where they would be, and he looked on his device then took me to one of the locked cages where 3 of the inverters were located on the very bottom shelf. They were indeed marked 50 bux regular $199. I snagged two and left one. I appreciate the employees assistance.
Got them home and tried one. Neat item that will be very useful, and the other is for a Christmas gift for a family member.
Bottom line: Before giving up, check for the "See In-Store Clearance Price" link below the online price.
Edit: In my brief testing, the only thing I would wish for was if the 12v "lighter plug" would function as a charger to charge the 18v battery while on the road, as well as powering the inverter as needed. Use the 110 inverter at night while parked, then charge the battery during travel in the day. That would be about perfect, IMHO.

I was wondering if I could use this to allow my EV battery to charge or even run something during a power outage. I could connect the inverter to the 12v battery, turn the car on (which charges the 12v battery from the large traction battery that runs the electric motors), and then use it to run something under 1000w. For those of you more steeped in this realm, would welcome thoughts.
In a Tesla, the 12 V cigarette lighter is connected to the 12 or 16V battery. It is not connected to the high voltage battery that powers the car

So modified sine wave is not good? I can't tell the difference. Wish I could understand what this basically does with car.
It doesn't do anything to your car, it's more about what's plugged in to the outlets. If you want to plug basically anything you want into your inverter, then pure sine wave is the way to go. With a modified sine wave, more sensitive electronics tend not to do too well and might behave weirdly or not work at all
