Hi Dan, I am lucky that in addition to the cig lighter, the vehicle comes with an AC outlet that says "120V MAX 150W" on it. I just tested it and the fan works. Still testing the battery by allowing the fan to run for one hour, and I will find out how much battery will be drained from the battery meter. Thanks! Alex
alexw Posted August 19, 2015 Author Report Posted August 19, 2015 After one hour of running the fan, the battery meter barely moved, WHOO-HOO!
DanD Posted August 20, 2015 Report Posted August 20, 2015 What make of vehicle is this? In all my years in the trade, I've never seen a power inverter factory installed; unless it was a hybrid? That is a bonus for sure; bring your TV and a mini fridge. LOL Dan.
alexw Posted August 20, 2015 Author Report Posted August 20, 2015 It's a Buick Enclave 2012 (Not a hybrid). It is indeed not a common feature but very convenient.

There are plenty of vehicles on the market with factory installed inverters these days.

If I ever needed to know something I used to ask my usual suspects now I just come here and ask. From repairing my boat to making a voting choice, it's all here on OFC, the one stop brain trust. Learning more about fishing is a bonus.
