Targus sells a DC-DC kit to go from the cigarette lighter directly into a
laptop, no inverter required. Same kit works on airplanes.
I've used an 800 watt inverter (direct to 12V battery terminals) along with
a few long heavy duty power extension cables before, during
earthquake-caused power

Yes, that's what guy suggested here:

1250 watts is more than you might think, especially with today's
low-wattage refrigerators, compact fluorescent lights and personal
computers. My 3 kW generator is more than enough during most outages, even
at night.
The 1250 W inverter cost only $129. It would pay for itself after

I suggest if you want to power serious items that you attach the DC-AC
inverter directly to the 12 V battery. Remember, for a 100 W load at
110 V, the current at 12 V will be about 10 A, which is about the limit
of most wiring at an outlet in a car. In any case, you need to know the
wiring
