hi Ziners,

I need to get an inverter for powering electronics, etc.
didn't realize there were so many specs to consider, as far as wattage, amperage, etc..
I also learned that apparently even if I get a top line, high wattage inverter, designed to work off 12V cigarette lighter, I'm still limited to the amps the cigarette lighter can handle, which in turn is limited by whether or not the fuse is dedicated to only the lighter, or also handles other draws (radio, internal lights, etc.).
Please advise the fuse's amps (10, 15, 20?) and if is a dedicated fuse or not, and any suggestions for inverter purchase. Thanks much

If you want to run something more than the cigarette lighter can handle you need to get an inverter that hooks directly up to the battery.

The fuse is a 15 I believe, and it's the radio fuse as well
