Hi Luca,
I have one also & it runs, 240v fan, camera etc etc no problem.
Check the internal fuse it is contained inside the plug that goes into the cig/lighter.

regards Simon.

If it's a "WARCO"as you suggest then thats why..! Try correcting the name of the product to "WAECO"and it should work ... LOL

I got one also for free from 4WD monthly.
Works great. Have used it already charging phone and camera.
Will probably be able to charge battery on laptop as well.

If the unit is faulty, send it back, but make sure it's not at your end first.

Cheers, Wayne.
