1. Editorâs Pick: BESTEK 200W Car Cupholder Power Inverter
Your author is placing this unit at the head table for a pair of reasons. First, it includes a 12V cigarette lighter, replacing the one it consumed to hoover power in the first place. This makes it great for those of us who have an older radar detector, for example. My second reason? It fits just fine in a standard cupholder, thankyouverymuch.

Having your power inverter launch itself â and the device to which it is attached â across the vehicle when going around a corner is less than ideal. An inverter placed into a cupholder solves that problem, unless you turn turtle in which case there are bigger issues to worry about than a power inverter. This unit has two USB ports and a pair of AC outlets, plus a real on/off switch which is a bigger deal than you may think. It is also painted red, which appeals to this extrovert.
