Looking for a small inverter...

In article ,
says...
...one I can install in a compartment in the center console of my new
boat and hardwire direct to one of the batteries. I'm not looking for a
lot of power...enough to run a laptop, a small "boombox" type FM radio,
et cetera. Clean power is important, but not current draw. I'd like
something that isn't going to corrode out on me in a season. It won't be
directly exposed to the elements.

Under $100.

Suggestions?

Oh...if you are in my killfile, don't waste your time responding. I
won't see it.

I bought a two-outlet 400W name brand at an auto supply store that ran
about $25. Hasn't failed in a couple of years of sporadic use.
Construction seems more than adequate.

Don't know what a marine version would run but, if it's anything like
the in-dash marine vs. auto radio, they don't impress me as being worth
the investment.
