What's great about it: Works as advertised.
What's not so great: size
cable was a little longer than i would have desired. Overall all though, plug and play. Not much required to get it to work. Also, prefer the DVI if monitor supports it.

What's great about it: Dock your Surface Tablet
What's not so great: Limited Capability
Ok, only a 100Mbs Network Port and only 1 Video out. You need to daisy chain with display port v1.2 and compliant monitors for dual screen. IE Dell U2414h series monitors. pricey for limited capabilities.

What's great about it: Excellent Sound Quality
What's not so great: Needs Adapter for 5S & Unable to Dock Android Devices
As always, Bose provides excellent products. Unfortunately this one required an adapter to work with the 5S. Also, it has no capability to DOCK Android devices as nicely as Apple products. Overall though, BOSE does what it does best; SOUND GREAT!

IF Elite Member, you can typically return it and exchange or credit towards better item up to 45 days if no defect. After that i think you have a restocking fee.

Will it work off a car battery with an adapter?

What I really want to know is does the unit itself run off 12v. dc and includes a power brick to transform 120 volts ac to 12v dc?
Per Basic electronics, what it does it convert the AC to 12V DC. That is the job of the powersupply. Just ensure you supply the right amount of juice.
