Does anyone know of a *compact* solution for generating 230V to run the
manufacturer's supplier battery chargers off a 12V car battery?
I realize that most manufacturers will sell you a suitable car charger for
their batteries, however once you add up all the different digital cameras,
video cameras, laptops, mobile phones, etc. etc. that the average family
owns, it seems that a much more cost effective solution would be to buy a
single inverter.
The problem is that I can't find anything smaller than 150W. Although this
would do the job, it is rather more massive than I want. My ideal solution
would be something capable of generating about 20 - 25W and small enough to
fit on the palm of a hand.
Does anyone know if such a thing exists?

You might look at the voltage requirements ofthe chargers. Many require
12VDC. If this is the case a cable can be made from parts readily
available at Radio Shack for example.
