[QUOTE="Dreman, post: 943788, member: 61303"] I want to use a high power converter inside the Trac to power my wife's asthma nebulizer, which turns her asthma medicine into a fog so she can breathe it in. I have a 400 watt converter that will barely power it, and a 700 watt converter that has power to spare, but either one will blow the 20 amp fuse in the cigarette lighter socket. Either one will work if clipped straight to the battery. Is there a way, short of hard wiring one of them in, to make a connector that will allow us to plug the converter in and allow her to use the machine while riding in the truck? I've looked at 12v nebulizers, but she prefers her house unit. And she isn't inclined to use the under-hood method herself. The 400 watt converter will probably require at least 40 amps to power it fully, and the 700 watt will probably require 60 amps. [/QUOTE]
