BESTEK's 400W car power inverter is a compact 12V-to-110V adapter that works well for light electronics like laptops and phone chargers, and the hard-wired plug makes it easy to use in the car. The input range of 11 to 17 volts also fits a Tesla low-voltage battery. The main caution is power draw, since many cigarette-lighter circuits and fuses cannot safely handle 400W, and the unit may blow a fuse if the load is too high. It is best suited to modest charging needs rather than heavy appliances.
The inverter can charge a laptop even when the output waveform is modified rather than pure sine.
The coupon code can fail on the first attempt in Amazon, but refreshing and reapplying can make it work.
The inverter's 11-17V input range can fit Tesla LVB compatibility needs.
The cigarette-lighter connection is hard-wired on this model, which can simplify setup compared with clip-based connections.
Vehicle fuse ratings can limit safe use, since a 20A or 15A fuse may be inadequate for the inverter's higher draw.
A modified-wave output can prevent some solar battery setups from turning on and can slow recharging via 12V.
Many cars' 12V cigarette outlets cannot handle 400W and can blow a fuse.
The stated 40A input current can exceed typical lighter circuit limits, which may require heavier wiring than most cars use.

Edit to add we have not blew a fuse. 2009 Toyota Yaris.

If you're going the clip route, I'd get a bigger, true pure sine inverter to be able to charge solar batteries.

They are not pure sine, they are modified sine wave, even though they were advertised as a pure sine device.
They 140w charge my laptop, and my phone just fine, but my solar battery won't even turn on because of the dirty wave. And recharging the solar battery takes close to 30 hours via a 12v plug.
