I waslooking at a cig lighter splitter, so I could run a few things off
this. I was wondering does nay one know the story on these.
How much power does the cig lighter give out and is it really possible to
use a few things from the cig lighter. Is the fuse strong enough or can it
be replaced with a stronger one. Anyway as usual your thoughts on this
thanks

Hey JB,
I use a 4 way splitter for phone, Garmin, charge checker and Radar
detector. All with a total draw less than the fuse rating. So they are OK
but you can have fun finding a good place to mount it. Its a 2 handed job
to get them in and out as you can't really mount the adaptor firmly. In my
case I have to disconnect everything every time I park to get them out of
view of the car park vermin. For my cooler I installed a separate single
outlet wired direct with an in-line fuse. If you have one of those fancy
cubby things that my military 3 seater front row does not have, then you
can make a smart job of installing a panel with a good direct supply and
relevant fuses. I think you will find it well documented on 80scool,
possibly also on their webpage technical list too.
