I have a Wagan elite PSW 400 watt. Nice and small and quiet. Fan does not become audible until the 175 to 200 watt range. Standby current of around 0.3 to 0.04 amps.
Came with ciggy plug and a 100 watt warning on that, or 8awg alligator clips for the full 400 watts.
I wouldn't trust a ciggy plug/ receptacle to carry 100 watts for long. They are poor connections prone to heating and voltage drop which just gets worse with age.
I use a 400W Wagan Elite too as a portable and it works very well.
I was so impressed with the little unit, I went with the 1000W Elite Pro for a permanent install in my camper and it is a nice addition
