'01 CL: max wattage/amperage for DC inverter?
I want to install an inverter in my '01CL so I can power a laptop/GPS/spotlight etc (not all at once) from the cabin... Not being too familiar with wattage and amperage ratings, what's the maximum wattage I can draw from the cigarette lighter or the power plug in the console? I was told by a service tech at an Acura dealer that the fuse will blow at 20 amps... Does that mean I'm looking at a max of 240 Watts that I can draw, or maybe more like 200 to be on the safe side...? Can someone help me out on this one...?
