110VAC in Automobile
About 6 years I found that Radio Shack has a plug in the cigarette lighter
converter to 110v. We were able to power a small color TV and Toshiba VCR
for a 4000 mile in 3 weeks vacation with 3 small kids. The converter is
fused and sells for about $60. The van was also dragging a small 2 wheel
trailer. You could feel the engine labor sometimes in the mountains. I
took ear plugs, disney movie music rots your brain. My wife still uses the
converter to recharge her cell phone in the car.
Now parent of 3 partially grown kids, two in high school.
