Just an update.
He is going to do further testing but has been busy.
On the trip that he bought the Flexopower for, he plugged in and left.
when he arrived at his destination 4.5 hours later the Flexopower was flat and his fridge was off.
His two main complaints are:
* The cigarette lighter jack can't be used.
* A fully charged Flexopower cannot run a fridge for anywhere close to 9 hours.
I've told him to return it - but he feels more testing is required.

Sean did a final test:
He used his Fridge which is bigger than mine.
Charged the Flexopower fully.
Got the fridge to operating temp.
Plugged the fridge into the flexopower.
Then unplugged the Flexopower from the wall.
Start 09:20 in the morning.
He got home at 16:00 - Flexopower was flat & the fridge was off...
So 4 or 5 hours seems to be all you can expect...

No more tests.
The thing is not a very good product.
He will try return it...
