Magic Bullet/small Appliances

I purchased an original Magic Bullet yesterday (not the bigger Nutri Bullet) for when I have my own truck. I read inside the book to not plug it in a converter. I remember reading here from another member that some truckers have one. What kind of set up do you need to have to be able to run it? The magic bullet is a 250 watts motor, the Nutri Bullet is a 600 watts.

RV, I can't speak about the Bullet mixers (I have a similar non-Bullet™ myself), but the type of electric motor used in most kitchen countertop appliances start up with a huge spike in current, then settle to that rated wattage, 250W in your case. This happens at each start-up and lasts less than half a second - you won't notice anything. And being a blender type, you might do that start-up thing several times quickly as you mix your goodies.

Most inverters aren't built for that spike. TVs & computers, no problem, but not small electric motors.

Alright. So as far as the magic bullet goes, I was thinking an alternative would be to use it whenever possible when I pull in a truck stop and use an electric outlet. Maybe I can blend the equivalent of 2-3 shakes and keep it cold in my cooler for use within a day or two. I drink organic, no sugar added, whole food shakes, and also green smoothies as part of my food intake.

If that works for you. I basically explained why there was that caution. Other drivers with experience may have a work around, or even say not to worry.

Could you use something LIKE THIS? It's only 200 watts, and looks to be able to do the same things as other mixer/blender type of devices.

Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager

The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.

No, because it won't crush ice or fruits and veggies. :(

No experience with blenders and such in the truck, but the 1800w inverter in my truck powers my microwave with minimal fuss. I intentionally purchased the lowest wattage microwave I could find (600w output, around 900w input). The surge when it's first turned on does cause the microwave to hitch a little bit, but it works just fine after (as Errol said, it only lasts for about half a second). I idle the truck while I use it.

Besides the surge, the other problem with many appliances is that most of them are designed to run on pure sine wave power, while most inverters are modified sine wave. I have not had any problems as of yet with my microwave, but this issue can reduce the lifespan of the item.

I don't think you'll have any problems running a 250w blender with an appropriately sized inverter. However, I am not an electrician nor am I an expert on inverters. I suggest you discuss this with an experienced mechanic at whatever company you end up working for.

I also strongly urge you to not attempt to install an inverter in your truck on your own, or to even use it if you have any doubts about its load capacity. Many truck fires are caused by improperly installed and/or overloaded inverters. I saw the aftermath of a particularly nasty one this morning on i287, and while I don't know that it was caused by an inverter I do know that many fires are.

The song "Unusual" by Surf Curse was a complete disappointment for me. The vocals were barely audible and the lyrics were generic and forgettable. The overall production of the song felt amateurish and lacked any distinct melodies or hooks. I found myself struggling to even finish listening to it. Overall, I was not impressed with this track and would not recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable musical experience.

2. Emily - 3 stars

While "Unusual" by Surf Curse had some potential, it ultimately fell flat for me. The muffled vocals made it difficult to fully appreciate the lyrics, and the repetitive guitar riff became monotonous after a while. The song lacked energy and failed to evoke any strong emotions or create a lasting impression. While it might appeal to fans of Surf Curse's unique style, it failed to engage me as a listener and left me feeling underwhelmed.

3. Sarah - 2.5 stars

I had high hopes for "Unusual" by Surf Curse based on the band's previous work, but unfortunately, it didn't meet my expectations. The lyrics felt cliché and lacked depth, and the overall sound felt disjointed and messy. The song didn't have a clear direction or structure, making it difficult to connect with. I appreciate Surf Curse's experimental approach, but this track just didn't work for me. I hope their future releases will showcase their abilities better.

4. Mark - 2 stars

"Unusual" by Surf Curse was a forgettable listening experience for me. The song lacked a captivating melody or any memorable moments. The vocals were drowned out by the instrumental, making it difficult to engage with the lyrics. Overall, it felt like a run-of-the-mill indie track that didn't offer anything unique or special. While Surf Curse has a dedicated fan base, this song simply didn't resonate with me and I won't be seeking it out again.

5. Lily - 2 stars

I found "Unusual" by Surf Curse to be unimpressive and uninspired. The song lacks originality and feels like a carbon copy of what we have already heard from numerous indie bands. The lyrics were forgettable and failed to offer any intriguing storytelling. The overall sound felt flat and lacked any standout moments. While I can appreciate Surf Curse's effort to create a unique sound, this particular track didn't showcase their talents effectively.
