Can you give more details on the 12V to 220V laptop charger you have ? Is it safe to use that for prolonged periods ? Can i use other devices using the 220V power outlet ?

Targus Laptop Charger

I have been using this for around three years now. I have used my OnePlus Dash Charger(20W) to charge my phone from 0-100 which normally takes about an hour. Also used it with my Dell(90W) and dad's Lenovo(45W) laptop for about two hours.
Other devices can work but they should not have a power rating above 400W as that is the peak operating output.
It heats up during usage but has a fan at the back that helps keep it cool.
It can be used as long as it doesn't heat up and cut-off automatically due to heavy usage.
I recommend to use it only on long trips where the car is turned not turned off frequently.
I use it only after I turn on the car engine and turn it off before I turn off the car. Using it without the car running will drain the car battery very quickly.
Adding some pictures below:

I had no idea a product like this exists Targus is a reputed brand so i believe it will last for years to come. The accessory looks like it can be fitted in the cupholders present in car.

It is still working absolutely fine, so I guess it is safe to say that.

The accessory looks like it can be fitted in the cupholders present in car.

It will depend where the cup holder is present.
The wire that you get with this charger is quite short, I guess around a feet long, so if you keep the charger in the cup holder the wire may not reach the 12V socket, although that depends completely on your cars ergonomics.
Second thing is the charger's size, it is around 8-9" long so keeping it in the cup holder and using it won't be possible, also since the cup holder is closed from the bottom, it will restrict air flow to the cooling fan at the back and cause the charger to heat up and hamper it's functionality.
So please check that as well.

Thanks for the suggestion. I was searching for this kind of solution for my SLR and Laptop. Most of the products at Amazon and Flipkart have negative reviews and ratings. If you are using this product from last three years, it's a reliable product. I am going for it. Thanks for the review

What I have in the boot

1. Tyre Inflator and air pressure guage
2. Puncher repair kit
3. Hydraulic jack
4. An assortment of tools and work gloves
5. Glass cleaning liquid, a couple of bottles of water (not for drinking)
6. Jopasu duster and some micro fibre towels
7. A torch with an emergency beacon and magnetic base
8. An umbrella

Inside the car I also carry
1. A first aid kit (not the one that came with the car)
2. A headlamp and multi tool
3. Requme tool

How do you guys organize these stuff in the boot? I have an old boot organizer that is in its final stages of life and I can't seem to find a decent replacement. There are only a couple of cheap models available online none of which look sturdy.

Looking for a car tyre inflator. There are plenty available on Amazon. I am looking for something under 2k. Bergmann typhoon and Windek is what seems good names.

The feature I like in Windek is auto cut and digital display. Not sure about its build quality or if Bergmann is superior. I need this to take care of 185 size Honda City tyres.

1. Suggestion from people who have these devices can help me immensely.
2. Also, are there any specific brands for jumper cables and tow cables that I should look for?

By the way just ordered Jopasu duster after seeing almost all of you have it. Looked at YT and it seems cool and pretty useful to thing to have. My new City would surely like it.

Can someone please suggest any specific brands for jumper cables and tow cables that are reliable?
Also, are the cylinder type (like bergman typhoon) tyre inflators better or the boxed one (like Resqtech mini)?

Any guidance will be much appreciated.

Have used Windek on innova, better model at that price point.

Tow cable: Generally used by SUV owners, wonder its usage on your Honda City, that too a CVT. Here is a discounted item anyways, choose among 8 feet, 15feet and 25 feet model.

Jumper cable: Try this.
I am generally wary of jumper cables as their claimed current rating always falls flat in real life usage. However, while searching I found 25 sq mm battery cables which would be capable of passing 100A current at engine cranking. These cables don't have alligator clips (less convenient) & will require 2 persons with steady hands for jump starting.

I know CVT shouldn't be towed. But in some emergency situation where it has to be moved to a safer location, may be a couple of hundred meters (I assume it can be done in Neutral), then I should have the tow cable handy. And who know I may also end up helping someone

I was looking for some good quality cable as Amazon has only Starvin cable with 90 reviews and still many people have posted pics of pathetic quality.

I have checked online many tyre inflators and now really confused. For convenience I believe I would need something that has resting points. The box shaped ones don't seem to have that. Not sure of local ones are any good.

Jumper cables are something that I needed on couple of occasions with my old Santro Xing. I didn't have those and was stuck. On one occassion i called up RSA and on other occassion i was in Patiala and a sardarji helped me out by doing some "jugaad" . I have no idea about the cables so thought to check if anyone has used some quality stuff that he can recommend.

After getting new Honda City was itching to fill it's boot with items as listed by many here.

After reading through this forum and after lots of googling ordered the following (many are not necessarily to be kept in boot ) :

• Jopasu duster
• Tow cable (ordered 3 ton but got 2 ton, ordered replacement, fingers crossed)
• Bergmann hurricane car vac
• Boat rapid car charger
• Windek 1902 tyre inflator
• Digital tyre guage (amazon showed brand name as Techtest but received unbranded. This is just to check if it matches Windek or fuel station's reading. If this doesn't work well, then Karter analogue guage will be ordered)

Stuff ordered and on the way:

• Microfiber cloth set (400 GSM, Simbysoft)
• ECH2O quick detailer
• Car mats 7D. Coozo quoted 5200 rupees but a quick enquiry on Indiamart led me to one of their distributers in Delhi who quoted 3200 rupeeson India mart. Done the deal in 3100 with free delivery.
  
  

Stuff yet to be ordered:

• Jumper cable though I hope I never have to use one. Amazon has Amazonbasics for 999/- and that is the only one that looks worth buying. Don't know of any other brand unless someone here can suggest one.
• Seat belt cushion for Mom as seat belt sort of cuts into her neck
• Fire extinguisher. Any brand that I should look for? Any suggestions?
  

Will post update with new pics once I get remaining stuff.
